Don’t think this is for me but I’ll persevere .

A mixed bag for me so far. Some of it is fine in it’s woozy nothingness but then it starts coming over all Sylvester McCoy era Dr Who. Some vaguely hypnotic beats I could happily let wash over me while trying to find my way out of a coma.

First listen...
A slow start, the first few songs are not really my cup of tea. Ptolemy is where my ears picked up. Loads of beats that reminded me of old school hip hop and house music. Delphium as well.
I can see why Mr Gore likes Aphex Twin. Reminds me of his solo stuff a bit. And a bit like Bernholz. I prefer my electronica with a voice, like Finlay Shakespeare or dare I say it, Neil Arthur.
I shall delve further...

"I" thought "I" had a good get to sleep mix to help me get some Zzzzs, then all of a sudden the "Green Calx" gets going as the helicopter lands on my rooftop and the commando team starts moving on its target as their search and destroy background music played.
Holy Wakeup Call, Batman!

I'm not quite halfway through. Kinetic ambient? House ambient? There should definitely be a term for this. But so far this is quite up my street. I will also remind the assorted rabble here that I was about the only one who really liked "Planetary Unfolding." :)

Ahem ....
Granted, you gave it more points than anybody.
I'm afraid to say that on current listens, this week's submission is not in the same league.

Admittedly not directly associated with the album in question but merely an excuse to post what is, in my opinion, one of the most mind-blowing music videos ever made. Oh and the music is pretty darn good too.
Thanks for that @BlueHammer85 , I hadn't seen that little history/clip before.
Certainly showed how different SAW1 is to so much of his work.
As predicted it does seem as this is very much marmite terrotiry
