This album could have had real crossover potential had it been injected with more progressive elements to make it stand out in a crowded genre, as too many of the tracks are just not going anywhere. The best tracks like "Otill" would have made a nice EP.
Rated 5/5

This is the superior version of this CD. The version released at the same time as the vinyl removes "Read Only Memory", "On and On", and "Headhunter", easily three of the most interesting tracks on the album. There's not a boring moment here, this is pure analogue Detroit-esque techno at its best. I have easily listened to this album more than 1000 times. It is my favorite piece of recorded music in any genre.

'Groove la chord' is one of my all-time favourits. It is an example how a relativly 'basic' tech-house track can be so damn effective and groovy. It is build around a tech-house synth chord, with a fast pulsating bassline underneath to pump the groove, added with some very recognizable hi-hat and cymbal riffs, topped off with some beautiful in- and out fading strings to work the track to a climax a few times.
It's a shame that we don't hear that much from an obviously talented producer like Aril Brikha.
Rated 4/5
