>i noticed that the astralwerks version of boymerang >has urban space on it. can't seem to find a tracklist >for the regal version. what track did they drop to get >urban space on, and is urban space the better song? speaking of this album, i've been listening to it alot lately. it really is quite good...not so much in it's musical complexity but more in it's mindset. its not an album i would sit and analyze (i will if anyone is interested), but when played, it kinda has a way of evoking images of post-millennial urban landscapes and the like. needless to say, the overall feel is 'soothing', but not in the ambient sense. it has this optimistic (and please don't confuse this with 'happy') mood throughout - even in the darker tunes, perhaps gained through the periodic juxtaposition of simultaneous major and minor key melodies....often occurring in the rhythmic elements as well as the melodic. also, the album does display multiple facets of the dnb spectrum and it does it fairly well. if anyone is interested in a tune by tune review (if it hasn't been presented already) let me know. |_-.| np.boymerang.botf.lazarus
