The album starts of really strong, with Menthol. It's hard to find harder hip-hop beats. Add interrupted voices saying "Sha-Shade-tek", sounds of melodic tape rolls that spins around your head and ears, then you got a definite underground hit. "The Fax", "Limes" and "Two and a Half Months" is just as great (and booming), then it slowly starts to fade down in quality. "Hard Dragon" saves the second part of the album. I'll recommend this album for beat lovers and adrenalin junkies like me.

Don't usually like dance/house music (if your allowed to label it that?). In fact, I could not listen to this album at first, for more then a few tracks, because I felt it was too silly. But! Something in this music, kept me hanging around it, like a curious and suspicious dog. Something very interesting and hypnotic. The album have been growing in my ears for each listen. It's one of those amazing albums that grows and grows. Once, I fell asleep while listening to it in the afternoon sun. Your inside this dream, of harmony and warmth... I would give all tracks a 4 or 5 out of 5, except "Who Pays the Bill" which is really, the only song on the album I do not love.

Don't let the first song scare you off. The second song "Tap Dance" is an hypnotic, 5 stars, warm-track-trigger. "You Thought It" is even better, more calm, with it's growing melodic groove and soothing beats. Then "Long Lost" comes of even more relaxing with no beats, later to start the sexy "Jay Track One". Amazing album!

Venetian Snares music is very interesting and unique. You can hear it's quality and you got to have mad skills to do it, but most of his albums are 2 fucked up for me to listen to. 2-advanced-or-no-melody-at-all-worst-drill'n'bass-gabber-heavy-noise-ever-heard.
Though (!), there is one album that I really love, a 5/5 stars and for me, a classic; Huge Chrome Cylinder Box Unfolding.
Would also like to recommend his new album; Rossz Csillag Allat Szuletett.

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.
