One big step forward! For the moment, I think this is his best album yet. Have waited for several comebacks lately: Prodigy, Chemical Brothers and Daft Punk. All of them where disappointments.

This album breaks new ground and it's a masterpiece.

I can imagen lots of house people getting upset, because this isn't a house record. Even though, one really good house track called "Controlling The House Pt. 2" is in there. For the rest of the songs, except no. 8 (which is something that would work very well live), you should expect classical or jazz music. Then it starts to get a lot better.
