This Album is extraordinary.......2005-09-26

This is Art, with a capital "A". Laurent Garnier used to work on sounds and rhythms. We saw his work evolved during the last 10 years, from a very successful minimalist techno to a very distinguish piece of art. The tracks are all good, and you'll be able to appreciate this CD, and to enjoy an instant of relaxation. I hope you'll love it as I do. Enjoy.

Not so good.......2005-07-01

Bought this on a whim because I've heard nothing but great things about Garnier and really dug his set at Coachella in '04 but was very disappointed in this purchase. Probably only for true diehard fans of Laurent Garnier.

Apart from being overly electronic and techno, the french 80s' aficionado DJ remains WITHIN traditional rock esthetics. Imaginative, tentative and Pink-Floy-ish (reference: "Careful with That Axe Eugene") - warm as opposite to acid, cool or dissonant, that is. Sparce too, probably. The idiom about "finger in the pie" or something rolls on the tip of my tongue (you know what I mean) in this regard. This feel is so rare, alien to the genre of "serious" electronic stuff that no further argument is needed to let the disk enrich any rock-biased collection... and to procure that 40 Hz vibe you long despaired of with your hi-fi. Check out track 7 please.

I can understand how someone looking for a banging techno record could be dissapointed, but this doesn't even look like a banging techno record. Also anyone who is a LG fan will know that he is much deeper than your run of the mill EDM artist. This album is a masterpiece, my favorit part of some of the tracks is that they bring in 1 drum, like the begining of a build and then pull back completely. Plastikman fans, IDM fans, Jazz fans and people who enjoy really interesting use of sounds will LOVE this album. (I say this because the previous descrition describes me). Bottom line, not a DANCE record not even a CHILL record, this is beatnick breaks, IDM and spoken word nu jazz (fusion, not lounge) at its absolute FINEST

This is a good album. It is electronica (despite what the previous reviewer said). It's just not the usual fast thumping techno beats we have come to expect from Laurent Garnier. It's more jazzy/blues. Call it chill out sounds - perfect for relaxing after a night out clubbing. My personal favourite tracks are 9.01 - 9:06, Barbiturik Blues, Huis Clos. All beautiful, mournful sounds. The pace quickens a bit (but not much) with the tracks Control the House and Waiting for my plane. To sum up - if it's techno your after do not buy this album (try Bible of Dreams by Juno Reactor - 5 stars). If you're looking for something different albeit experimental then I highly recommend this album. Great for late night listening.
