In general i'm not into the whole ambient progressive breaks Schnauss ADD Digital Witchcraft post 2000 thing, the breakbeats are too weak. The drum programming doesn't seem well thought out. Everyone raves over the melodies anyway. All this new stuff is basically a few layers of 2 or 3 note melody on top of a weak breakbeat. What I like about the SCO album is that the breaks are strong and not in the background, they're offset with interesting percussion and are interestingly programmed, and the melody is still there. The tracks have a more rhythmic overtone. Another example: Finitribe - 101.93.

Yeah i get what you mean and agree at some level but i do enjoy Schnauss' albums and a few Digital Witchcraft tracks too. I have that Finitribe track on the Monster In The House single and also the An Unexcepted Groovy Treat album. 101.93 is great indeed, just put it on.

I heard about this one and found a torrent for it, but there are never any sources. Do you know if any sites still have links for the set?
