Review by al1 Apr 21, 2004

This is a classic "Laswellian" ambiant dub record, roots and heavy, of traditionnal dub.
The cooperation of musicians like Gabe Katz (of Blind Idiot God) on tracks 2 & 4 and DJ Spooky (credited as "The Alchemist") on track 3, the length of the tracks (more than 10 minutes each) gives to this CD a good coherence without that the listener may have any sensation of monotony.
This CD can be considered as the volume # 0 of the four "Sacred System" albums that Laswell will later produce for ROIR records.
As for all the Strata records the CD is also released with a beautiful opaque black container.
