I've never heard it. What's it similar to? Or, how would you
describe it?

it glitches all over the place!

I don't know, can't really compare it to anything else.

Get the american edition, (matador?) the mu edition got
butchered(mastered) by some bloke with no concept of treble.

So, 'angular momentum' was on the promo release of Geometry?
i always wondered why my release from Matador never
contained that song. I actually prefer it over Doric.

The title track Geometry is my fave. Never quite felt the
rest of the album though.

This review kind of sums it up:

i love geometry and either breakpoint or inertia (whichever
one has all the bell tones)

yeah, this album is AWESOME.

I read somewhere (I think on planet-mu, by Mike P) that Jega
used only a nord modular and imac computer to make this.

Also, the first track "Alternating bit" is based entirely
around a melody by Wendy Carlos, which is from the
soundtrack for Tron. I was watching Tron the other night,
and I heard that melody creep up, and I was like "wtf jega?"
But yeah... it seems like the only thing he did on that
track is the drums.

Still a hot track.

Just some info, if anyone cares.

does anyone know any good interviews with Jega?

Jega can make some banging fast tracks... I bought this off
the strength of Rigid Body Dynamics but the whole thing is
super good. Maybe its a little too varied... dunno. I like
it.
