(speaking of which, haven't heard from Thrash all day -- the little guy's depressed, someone go over there and make sure he's okay. remember -- pass out on your STOMACH, that way you sleep in the vomit but don't choke on it like Hendrix). okay, a review summary: did you like Enigma back when they were big? how about that Deep Forest hit with the pygmy samples? this is pretty much the same shit -- same kind of song structure, same types of beats. same reliance on a "world music" sample to carry the song. one exception though is the tune "Liquid Universe", which mixes up the genre by substituting Roni Size style beats behind the smooth world music collage. this is a damned fine tune. but, really, i don't understand the buzz this act is getting. really, i don't. and i have received at least 3 poorly translated into English emails from Eastern Europeans about this review. apparently, people in the Baltic States a. read my site b. like new agey dance music c. can't find it in stores d. don't get the generally negative tone of the review but really -- this music is unremarkable except for that one song. i don't get it.....
