i'll agree that the record wasn't in the usual moody 
cruchy electronica style of Low Res tracks but i 
thought Atkins did a good job of making them
dancefloor friendly but still very interesting. for a
better representation of the Low Res style check
his new cd on Plug Research called Approximate
Love Boat - Alien Interpretations of Earth Music
or his new Crank cd on the Phthalo label called
Wanton Phenomena.

Agreed. The early PR stuff was much more in
the unique electronica style. The early REALM,
Phthalocyanine, and two PR mini comps are
priceless.
