if you don't like the album, what's the point of enlightening you, then

that "just my opinion" is the most relevant factor, I checked your opinion about Terminus, that's it. I really don't need to convince anyone

well, only if you want to be convinced

I don't know, but you tried it anyway. Although generally I am interested when I have a total disconnect with how someone else hears music.

@ripped - accept the duel from system-j

this particular album Photek did some stuff he has never done before, under any alias i know of. can't say i like it that much, especially compared to his older releases, but maybe you can say what in the music really makes it shine for you, what made you get into it.

Me too. I remember I tried listening to his whole discography in a couple of occasions, but just one and only release truly stuck with me - Modus Operandi. Probably because it resembles a lot in atmosphere early 90s UK techno from labels such as B12, ART and New Electronica. And of course, the programming is just otherworldy and completely different from anything I've heard in drum & bass before and after.

of course I can, but I won't

what you want is an indepth technical analysis
and an answer to a question "How can this album be considered not boring, it's so simplistic" which can't be answered in that way. And
because you will not be able to feel what I feel when I listen to it then there is no point. You will simply keep pushing your own ideas and it will never stop. I don't want to convince anyone in relation to this album. It's just too personal. That's it, it's all about the feeling.

If we were speaking about any other LP/EP that is not on the list of my personal all-time favorites (which includes Solaris, of course) then I would be more enthusiastic.

Originally posted by MSZ there is some awesome quality on that album, and photek is a beast. his best track though for me, comes from an EP, i dont think any of you will say this track is bad, its really amazing and one of my top tracks spanning genres. Photek - T-Raenon 1996, Op-ART [OP1] http://www.discogs.com/release/7449

I still can't decide if I like Original or Version the most. Probably Version though.

its rather inspiring to see the same artist make such very high quality tracks of different genre.

Have to post this track. Still doing amazing things in 2011.
