Just given this a spin... I like it, BUT...
the engineer should be summarily flogged. Is it just me (or my copy) or has this been compressed to within an inch of it's life!!
Aaargh!

No surprise really though. I do wish Naim would branch out a bit more and put something like this on its label. Can you imagine a Boards Of Canada album on a Naim produced CD for instance? It would be awesome.
It's good to see you around here a bit more recently Richard.

Well, being a single Dad for a couple of weeks with my daughter living at my place has meant more time at home with no travel....
There are plenty of Boards of Canada fans working at Naim. I think Anna is a fan too so who knows what the future may hold for the Naim label...
A real shame about the Royksopp though.... dumbed down for radio airplay no doubt!

Now Richard, you know how these rumours start...
The first Royksopp album was the sort of thing I only play from my ipod or in the car - I don't think I have ever played it at home - except "A Higher Place" for the drop at 2min 44sec, which I just love in all its glory.

I have to say i was very disapointed by their second album.
Usual case of trying to hard because the first one did so well, which i think is great.
B.O.C? no contest really

I can say i did like all their records.
The one which disappointed me is the very last.
"Copy protection" strikes again.

hmm..
A good thing I didn't pick it up.
Is the content worse than the first one?
Is the vinyl any better?
