Nick: in short, "no!"
Greg Clow posted a wonderfully written
slam against this, if i remember correctly,and I
had to nod my head in agreement. If you liked
the AON of old, you'll think "god, why didn't
they just leave their reputation intact and not
record again?" if you've never heard AON
before, you'll likely think to yourself "yuck,
what is this saccharine crap?" it's, to put
it simply, drum n bass lite, but with voiceovers
throughout that relate to the title (but the
theme doesn't redeem the bad music). i think
the label might have realized this, because the
new single with rakim on the m-i-c
is a doublepack that includes two
of their quality pieces from back in the day:
moments in love and another older one (don't
have the record here at home)
hope this helps. andrew duke
