5.0 out of 5 stars One of William's best..., August 5, 2002

This review is from: Strange Cargo: Hinterland (Audio CD)

I have Strange Cargo 2, 3 and best of and the *disappointing* Pieces In A Modern Style. This is my favorite out of all of them. It's very upbeat and energetic. Montauk Point kicks my butt every time, and I love the guitar work on El Ninjo. Just amazing electronic music here, really. If you can find this in stores, it's well worth the purchase.

This review is from: Strange Cargo: Hinterland (Audio CD)

This has alawys been one of my favorite William Orbit Albums. I owned Strange Cargo I, II, and III, as well as Hinterland. About two years ago, all my CD's got stolen. That sucked... but as I rebuilt my collection, thanks to insurance money, I made my decisions carefully. When it finally came to William Orbit, I stuck with II and Hinterland. I absolutely respect and love every track on Hinterland. A couple years later, I have rebuilt the collection I decided needed to be rebuilt. I now own every Orbit album, as well as every Orton album In short, Hinterland is pretty cool and holds many tracks that should be recognized.

3.0 out of 5 stars A great listen, but not essential, December 16, 1998

This review is from: Strange Cargo: Hinterland (Audio CD)

This is a good disc (3 1/2 stars). I've had it on everyday since purchasing it some days ago; still, I can feel it frequently reaching, but not always grasping. I don't regret purchasing it and I do enjoy it, but I would have liked Orbit to have gone a little further. If you have the money to spare and are into Strange Cargo, buy it; however, if you are on a tight music budget, spend your time looking for something with a little more breadth and originality.
