a change of style is right! "present" was one of my favorite idm albums of 1996, and i can honestly say that "via nostra" SUCKS. the first to track are all right, but the rest of the album is a huge disappointment! one track is the most pathetic attempt at dub i'v ever heard. basically, the flaws of this album are: the melodies/songwriting are weak and the production/soundz are cheasy. let's hope s.u. get back on track for the next lp -adrien nate wrote: >Date: Fri, 16 Apr 1999 18:51:52 -0400 (EDT) >From: "Nate Harrison \[Toshok Laboratories\]" <xxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx> >Subject: (idm) recent acquisitions >Sun Electric: Via Nostra > >A somewhat surprising change of style for SE.
