The first Electronica CD I purchased, and still the best

"This is just one of those CD's that stands alone, above the rest. I agree with everybody else, the Full cut of Xpander is better than the cut, but it's not bad in cut form. Xpander and Belfunk get all the play, but really, the other tracks are just as good.
Also, I'm not sure why, but this has my absolute favorite cover of any CD. It's incredibly fitting with the sound, especially Belfunk.
So, if you don't own this, you need to. It's truly wonderful."

"First off again I'm not writing a book here to quantify my authority upon the subject of electronica...I read the reviews "f-ing" christ just shut your pie hole and listen to the CD already...what? you think your Mozart's wet dream or something ??
...Benjamin T. Young "Skillz McGavern" --you are a blowhard...christ I read your other reviews...( yawning ) boring...thanks but no thanks music is music..other people want insightful reviews not your goddamned thesis paper on it...
onward and upward...sorry I had to go off like that..
The CD is excellent, I cut my teeth with electrica with this CD...I recommend it..get the full version...

"The best use of 3 minutes 50 seconds on any cd. The first song on this is the first and last in Trance setting a benchmark that will be tested for years. The first song can be extended, remixed, meshed simultaneously and amphlified by the same producer on a 12 minute musical set and reissued as a classic remastered cd for this year. I mean screw his stupid maven mixer i'll send him my version of this song he can keep the loot and property rights just re-release it in all its glory the way it sounds on this cd. The sound is 20 years ahead of its time which makes you wonder how brilliant is this prodigy."
Best EP you can get

"This should not be called EP, it should have been a LP. I know there are just 4 tracks, but they last over 40 minutes which is more then some punk/pop LPs that contain 10 songs or more.
I always skip edit of Xpander as the original mix is so much better. When you got thourgh a journey that starts with many will agree, best progressive trance tune of all time Xpander and continues on my fav track from the album Belfunk. Belfunk is just so great, so driving and emotional that can not be described by words.
Rabbitweed and Baja are phenomenal tracks too, and I can reccomend anyone who likes music to spend 40 mins of their life on this tunes. Once you gave this CD 40 mins, you will give it much more time as it just screams for a repeat.
And if you worry about date of releease - tracks sound so fresh even 4 years after.
Essential buy for electronic music fans, and even people that are not genre related, can relate to this."
