Mapod is by far the best release I have heard on Dot. Even though everyone
loves Dot and would probably tell you otherwise, I would recommend listening
before purchasing other releases. Most of their catalog is much more
conceptual than Mapod. Mapod is very successful as a cohesive album but
a lot of Dot releases sound like sketches. I heard Mapod before listening to
other Dot releases and I was very disappointed in the output of the label. I
agree that they are important innovators but they don't have a catalog of
consistently enjoyable music.
