Reviews

Flambient Dec 27, 2023
"Layla (Derek Sings Derek)" is the best cover version in the history of cover versions, period. Worth getting for that alone, though the whole album is superb and very diverse, from Ambient to Electro to Experimental but with a great flow. Maybe not for everyone as the rating suggests but definitely worth checking out if you like mid-90s Electronica, also appeals to my The KLF fan side. Agree with acidica that Hook R is a highlight. Also launched two singles with a bunch of remixes worth checking out.
