Moments Worth Listening For
The opening woodblock pattern and glockenspiel synth line of the title track, immediately setting a tone of crystalline grief.
The moment Soulwax's remix of Get Innocuous! shifts from its tense, mechanical build into a massive, distorted synth bassline.
Carl Craig's remix of Sound of Silver stripping the original down to a hypnotic, Detroit-style techno pulse that stretches into infinity.
