"Watch out for this guy. This cat is dangerous!!" - Derrick May (referring to Louis Haiman before his opening set @ Movement festival 2004)
True words. Very true. I was lucky enough to recieve a promo of this album and let me tell you; stellar! Louis' music, this album in particular to me sounds like a return to the mystique in Detroit (inspired) electronic music. Remember when that stuff was fresh and new? This music adds a ray of light onto the status-quo, all the while retaining that 'Virtual Sex' era vibe. Deep, emotional, funky, and most importantly, different. Listen!

Beautifully crafted sounds, simple but effective dry rhythms, nice melodies and pure inspiration in more than a couple of tracks (The Question of You, Soul Purpose).
Definitely alongside Detroit Escalator Company's work, Tony Drake, John Beltran's "Ten days of blue" and Sean Deason's "Allegory & Metaphor".
