The early As One recordings (Reflections, and Reflections on Reflections) have more of a smooth detroit electronica/idm sound. Celestial Soul and the Shield album, start to show the incorporation of a jazzier sound into the As One detroit mix. The two most recent albums (In With their Arps, Moogs + Jazz Things and Planetary Folklore) wear the As One jazz influences with prominence. But all albums are worth having for various reasons. In my opinion the early As One remix LP, Reflections on Reflections, is one of the lost IDM treasures. It contains remixes from Balil, Max 404, Carl Craig, b12, Steffan Robbers, Autocreation, Scanner, Elegy, Russ Gabriel and Urban Tribe. Good stuff Maynard! -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
