A revolutionary album at the time, but I must admit that now it sounds very dated, uncreative, and at times, boring. I think that Orbitals Brown Album has aged much more effectively, as interesting now as it was back then, and although the original Orbital, the funky techno Orbital, is more accurately displayed on this release. Id definitely recommend this, because you may or may not like it - just keep in mind the year this was made in.
