Accelerator is unique, because it has a mix of all the FSOL-isms on it, "generic techno" as you term it, ambient whooshes, vocal touches("it's not my problem", "expander"(the best on the album), and "central industrial"--'welcome to central industrial, we are the future...'(the second best on the album), and some pretty damn disturbing stuff, 'calcium' to name one. Get it! Get IT! GET IT!!!!!! Derek I take it you were referring to the EARTHBEAT COMPILATION...I'm still pounding out those tracks from a taped dub of the CD(Thanks Bella, wherever you are, kisses...)
