"San Francisco's Claude VonStroke delivers an absolutely brilliant album: Beware Of The Bird. This album is possibly the greatest dance electronica LP of all time. Capturing a version of electronic music that some people call "minimal", I call this style of music "not annoying". Granted, Beware Of The Bird does contain twitchy synth lines, but it does it in a careful way. My problem with most techno music is the droney, annoying, and lacking-space qualitites. Each piece of this record shows tasteful composition, bone-crushing engineering, and will force just about anyone to get up on the dance floor. From an inspiration stand-point, this album seriously makes me want to compose electronic dance music. This is classic house music, and even if you are new to the genre, this album is a guaranteed delight. And finally, Amazon has a CD of this for sale. Beware Of The Bird is history in the making."
Good music overall.

"One song that sticks out is "Who's afraid of Detroit"
it catches you and does'nt let go. I absolutely love the composition/elements on that one. Others are decent."
