This music is genius level on par with his earlier LPs. Though the previous reviewer says this music is a stylistic jump, to me it sounds much like the perfectionist analog minimal techno with extended ambient passages that can be found on "Asteroid". The music is still based on short loops and long, swelling build ups with very deep textures, and the 4/4 kick is not wholly absent, dominating several of the tracks. I am speaking only of this first volume, however, and he is discussing the entire series. Brilliant stuff; few can do so much with so little.

(I will write this as a review of the whole soundtrack series.)the soundtrack releases are something COMPLETELY different from what ET did before, so i can understand when some people dont like it. But I have to say, these releases are brilliant. every track is something unique without any genre and many experimental sounds, a bit like aphex twin, but with a completely different style. I think these releases show ET's full talent.
