    one of my favorites.
    I never get tired of listening to it.

      Two Scots boys have done magnificently well on combining IDM & Ambient on this release,
      Two most standouts that do it for me.. 'Hi scores' & 'Everything you do is a balloon' .. absolutely float my boat!
      Like me..If you don't feel Inspirationaly effected.. Change genre,

        I have just found out that the copy I bought on week of release in November 2002 is this version, the 2003 edition. It didn't have a paper insert, either :( Whether it was issued this way or lost in the record store I don't know. I am 100% sure of the date of purchase because I still have the detailed receipt (staff discount included, I worked at the record store in question) and the price sticker is dated, also.
