This is techno the way it's supposed to be. It really is all about the experimentation, and this CD does it. It does have a couple slightly housey tracks, which I usually skip, because they seem a bit unfitting with the rest of the CD. If you're a fan of either techno, experimental electronic, or both(techno can be pretty experimental as it is), like me, then this CD is one that must be in your collection.

The feeling you get from listening to this disc is a feeling that someone has invaded your head, has taken control, and is pushing his way into the pleasure center in your brain. Again Richie Hawtin has shown us how beautiful minimalism is. Listening to the tracks is like going on a trip to somewhere new, with old friends. It's entirely new, but there's something familiar.

One has to really appreciate Richie Hawtin (aka Plastikman) in order to appreciate the CD. He plays arduously long 8-hour sets that attract many fans all over the country. he combines slow, melodic basses together to produce a self-inducing type of transic style. this cd is not for one who is looking to dance...and often it is difficult to hear the sounds at all.
