Review:
There's something here for Lumen fans but it feels maybe 3 or 4 years out of date and much of the new material isn't as interesting as what was already released.
Jaia and Saiko-Pod rock out with the emerging style of progressive psytrance... this early effort was widely panned by critics and listeners alike, especially for the rather tasteless cover, but it did prove to be a sign of things going forward.
As for the album, not bad... it certainly has some high points. The title track, Future Funk, Solid, Pot Alert... actually, most of this has something going for it.

Weird stuff! It does not sound like anything else. Global and Aus Walk are probably the most noteworthy songs here.
