I'm listening to some samples @Bleep. Sounds very "artificial intelligence" alike. Also somewhat similar to "Spanners", only less dense and more repetitive. Nice spaces. I like the bits from track 3 (Cymetry).

Agreed, it's not as good as electro soma. But still a great album.

seriously? or is this hyperbole? because I have been trying to track down their stuff half heartedly for some time now but I might just step up the effort now, as I tend to respect your opinions. the others seem to be positive as well.

I guess you might not be able to say catagorically this is the best album ever, but then you couldn't say that about any album, really. But certainly, for me, I've enjoyed the music of B12 since I first heard them when Electro Soma came out, and rarely a week goes by when I don't listen to at least something by them.
Coming to them now, a new listener might think, "hmmm, what's so special about this?", especially after all that's come and gone in the intervening years with electronic music. But I think, if you "get" them, if it clicks with you, then you are richly rewarded.
For me it is timeless electronic music, which is hard to do.
Nacmat says such lovely things.

I just realised on the "B12â„¢ thanks" list on the back of the sleeve they give "shout outs" to, among others, LFO, "Black Dog (as was)" and 2 Unlimited. They are just the best.
Sigh, 1996... ten years since a B12 album... 10 Years

I just recently got this. Its incredible, like the epitome of mid-90s electronica, and probably some of the best. The release most similar to it, that I have heard, at least, is probably Amber.
Haven't heard electrosoma, though.

I'm listening to this right now.... I guess I'm being nostalgic. It was such a buzz listening to this kind of music back when it was released. I love that detroit sound with the soft, mellow pads on top of repetitive percussion patterns. Kirk Degiorgio and Carl Craig were masters of this thing too. Hmmm, I think I'll have a listen to Philosophy of Sound and Machine one of these days as well. Does anyone have an original cd copy of that release? If so, lucky you!
