In a similar vein as The Orb...and that's not a bad thing. This album has some beautiful songs. They're all quite good, although the beats sound a bit dated in certain sections. These songs deserve a nice remix. I spy a bonanza of great material for whoever gets there first!!
Rated 5/5

Totally classic and unmissable ambient/downtempo long player. If you have a collection that includes The Orb, Global Communication and Irresistible Force CDs you really mustn't be without this one. Beautifully constructed, absorbing, chilled and mesmerising. The 36 minute version of Kincajou is a trip!
Rated 5/5

A required album. Fine, lush ambient with definate electronic roots. Quite easy to loose track of time in. 887 is my favourite of the album... An electronic winding staircase being washed over by drifting samples. Excellent stuff. Reminds me of older Orb and Sun Electric perhaps with a bit of KLF, Enigma and Green Forest in places.
