Ok, three words: What the fuck?!?
Mills is one of my heroes of basic, raw and minimal techno music, so him teaming up with a philharmonic orchestra to play live just doesn't make any sense to me. Does this suck as much arse as I suspect? Anyone?

I will have to have a listen to this. It sounds quite interesting as I love some of his tracks with (artificial) strings.

It didn't turn out bad. Better than I was expecting although I didn't think it added much to the tracks, I mean they were different but not necessarily better. Interesting project anyway.

he just added some beats to orchestral sets of strings and shit. truely,a genius work, adding minimal beats to background orchestra.

He tried something out, it doesn't have to be 'genius work'. It was enjoyable for what it was.

and orbital did that way better with michael kamen for event horizon ost so its explored already. plus, his constant rambling about ideology behind his music, its already boring. its minimal, hasnt changed in last 15 years, will not change, gets boring and the same after 3 tresor albums.

it's minimal, one track would last 15years if they could fit it onto 1 CD.

YES! A truly horrible album.

i don't like this sort of things but i would love to be there to enjoy it : )
mills is on a totally different level to everyone else in techno music..most of detroit producers lost their touch up to mid 90's and mills just keeps going strong (with few exceptions)..just check out the new alpha centauri ep..simply beautiful

Gah I hate retyping text when firefox fucks up..
ANYWAY!
Most orchestral collaborations are a sign that a band/artist has become too big and is bit of an ego thing. I bought this album ages ago and still give it a listen. 'The Bells' is a highlight although it often just makes me want to hear the real thing.
