Sometimes you have an album in your collection for a while that you enjoy a song or two off of and don't think much else about it. Then one day you decide to dig deeper into the context and realize that what you had is a masterpiece. This happened to me last year with this album, and since I would definitely put this in my top 10 albums of all time. The way it bridges the gap between ambient, trance, and sample based music is seriously impressive. It's also great when you recognize the samples he's using; for instance Coldplay on Silent and Lionel Richie on A Paw In My Face
Of course this kind of music isn't perfect for every mood that you're in; but when you're ready for it this album clicks into place perfectly.
