Review by paullo May 29, 2003

Cold wave didn't get much better than this. How can a record sound cold, danceable, clever and deep all at once? I know it's a tough question, but the answer is right here.
Being Boiled still fits perfectly in any decent DJ-set nowadays - and you don't even have to adjust the pitch. Black Hit of Space is tantalizing and disturbing. Dreams of Leaving is quasi-epic. There is not a bad track on this record, and all in all, Travelogue is heaven for analog synths' fans.
