Gez Varley's Techno tracks on this CD are simply stunning and bring back memories about his legendary first solo offerings as 'G-Man' which were released on the infamous Swim ~ label.
Both the hypnotic 'Alone' with its bright chords and 'Old Skool Drift' with its floating pads over a wonderful, driving bassline are destined to move early morning floors for sure! The beats are straight, dry, simple and effective. Not as good as 'Quo Vadis' or 'El Jem', but definitely better and a lot deeper than the two albums on Force Inc.
David Morley's 'Legend' and 'Mechwelt' are just nice, inoffensive Electro tunes, while Nodern's contributions don't really do anything for me.
