Reviews & Discussion
referencing Poor Leno, 12", S/Sided, WALL T 073 Y
After a decidedly long intro you get startled by the deep, dark 'n' druggy low-slung bassline that appears out of nowhere. Nothing hard, certainly not fast, but most definitely hypnotic. The bulk of the track consists of this infamous bassline, some clever percussive effects and an understated melody. The only remnants of the original are the vocodered vocals, which are used sparingly. I'd class this as perfect comedown music. The sort of music that you'd listen to after a heavy night out, sat in a living room with a bunch of friends. Pure class!

The original is the best out of the pack, but Sander's can hold up as well. The rest doesn't hold my attention. i really think this group will be great. it's been a while since the album first came out, but their ambient soundscapes are amonst the best in the world for latenite gatherings or easy listening music.
It is quite soft but is particularly lush and epic. No vocals but the vocal line is taken by a pair (it's a very layered track)of resonant synths.
