Basically Intelligent Acid Jazz (wow, I just invented a new genre), with ambient atmospherics and a touch of trip hop. My favorite track is "Searching" which features vocals by that girl who sang with the Style Council (remember the song "The Lodgers"?). If you like good acid Jazz, IDM, and ambient, I strongly suggest you buy the album. The remix album is also great, features remixes by Wagon Christ and Aphex Twin. Not as good as the album. If I were to choose one, I would get the non-remix CD. Adrian
