Agreed. It's a pretty solid record. My only complaint is that it switches
gears from track to track a bit too much.

Paul Haslinger was a member of Tangerine Dream for a while (although I
don't hold it against him...) before going solo. Did a couple of albums
more in the world/ethno-ambient/techno vein. Score seems to be inspired by
the music work he's been doing for film and TV. Check the credits and
you'll see he was helped by Brian Williams, aka Lustmord, who also does
the film/TV music thing - both of them usually assisting Graeme Revell.
