Yeah, I think that the "seamlessness" that you mention is what struck me as well. His 'Multila' was one of my favorites of 2000, and 'Anima' this year just enveloped me with the natural way that it unfolds. A lot of the lengthy compositons that I enjoy, like the work of Koji Asano and Bernhard Gunter, often has a kind of environmental/industrial sense to it, which ends up giving it a more casual, musique-concrete feel -- in other words, sounds that were happened upon as much as they were planned. 'Anima,' to the contrary, seemed -- to employ one of my favorite terms -- through-composed. M At 07:22 AM 11/1/01 -0800, Steven wrote: > > Vladislav Delay - Anima > > >REALLY?
