"It is a pity that no samples of this disc are available for listeners and those interested in buying this disc. Anyway, just check out all the glowing reviews, not to be confused with glowsticks, and nearly perfect(5)scores or ratings. Sasha creates an ethereal afterglow for the dance crowd, or in my case, the perfect late night ambience en la casa(at home). The magic in the music is created by turing down the tempo several notches ,putting this disc comfortably somewhere between ambient chill and dreamland. There is just just enough energy to spark interest or ignite your glowstick mood but never over the top. All the songs are excellent but here are some gems. The seemingly dark quite of " Cloud Cuckoo" that is a mix of otherworldy rhythms and hyper-beats that suddenly drops and transforms into dub and vice versa, "Mr.Tiddles" with it's Eastern dub groove, "Wavy Gravy" which has a groovy flow, the trickling-thump-thump groove of "Bloodlock" that sounds like it could be a soundtrack to a video game and the flat out beautiful "Requiem". The whole disc rocks in an electronica dance way that should not be missed. Recommended for your electronica collection and musical bliss."

This is where it all began for me... he opened my eyes, my m

"I can't really write anything that will do this album justice. A friend of mine was playing this at work and it perked my ears. I had never really had any experience with electronic music nor been to a club where this was the type played. He handed me the CD and ever since my life has changed. Sasha had just dropped this album and was touring for the CD release. After listening and being totally blown away my friend asked me to join him to see Sasha perform live at Ruby Skye in San Fran. I had never been to a club and being your classic white boy hadn't even attempted to dance in my life. This all changed after Sasha blessed my ears. I can still vividly remember him closing the set with Wavy Gravy... how it felt, the sound, the vibe in the club... Incredible. Sasha helped me find my inner rhythm, freeing me of the stereotypically dancing and releasing me into blissful dance (drug free mind you). If you don't have this album, get it, now. Sasha is a brilliant producer and never lets down live."
