I'm looking fwd to this one. Havent gotten
a chance to hear it yet...

I disagree. I thought stewart's album was quite
fresh. It had enough drive to keep things
moving and enough of a deep experimental
touch to keep it interesting. For fans of the
deep brinkmann - chain reaction sound this
one is for you.

I totally agree. My ears have been getting
blissed out to this album since i got it last
week. It fits in perfectly with the lush
microstoria, oval, cathars, pulse programming,
robert babciz sound i love so much.

 From what i can tell, Hosomi Sakana (the
core member of Neina) is involved in:
. Maju: Maju-1 cd (Extreme/Indigo)

I hear there are a slew of other releaes
he has worked on in one form or another.
If any of them are like Neina then i'm eager
for more information as well!
