After the rather disappointing Golden Section, this is a proper return to form. Maybe safe, but very pleasing.

I don't agree with all of the above. This sounds much fresher and better produced than their previous work. 'High Plains Drifter' is indeed a techno track, but a very powerful one with strong bassline and beat. Also available in the 'Voyager remix' which sounds nothing like the original, but is also a floor filler.
'Varkala' sounds like an old Goa track and is therefor very unneccessary (not the same as 'bad'). 'Manik Shamanik' also has some Psy influences and sounds a lot more powerful, but is faded out in the end (SO not-done in 21rst century dance music!). The downtempotracks are very good and this album is generally recommendable to anyone who loves IDM, Techno, Ambient and Trance. -
Edited 14 years agoI generally prefer System 7's earlier work but the final three tracks on this album are noteworthy - <i>Varkala</i> has a good drivin' proper psy-trance 4-beat and bassline while <i>The Abyss</i> and <i>Chiringuito</i> are both really nice chill-out tunes. The second track, <i>High Plains Drifter</i>, shares its title with a 1973 western starring (and directed by) Clint Eastwood but the tune doesn't sound much like a western to me! It's more sort of uneventful techno-trance; then again, I've not seen the movie so for all I know it sums it up nicely. :)
