Comments: There was a bit of contention as to whether this was a ROLO or a ROIO. (It is being considered a roio until we hear different). The absence of any record company crap on the entire package is a bit confusing. The disc has a similar pattern to the Shine On discs.


This was not remixed by the Orb or Trent Reznor (?!). However, many of the songs have passages that are essentially Orb and Floyd mixed together. This may have been done to give the appearance of the Orb being involved in the remixes, to boost sales.


Overall, this disc is interesting as a novelty value, but I doubt whether it would be worth the unusually high prices being demanded for it. I would suggest that anyone who is interested get a copy on tape because it appears to me (although I am no expert in ambient music) that these 'remixes' are not done in a very inspired way. Note that the tracks are extended over the originals, and often bear only a passing resemblance to them in parts (e.g. a lot of the vocals are cut). -HAMISH
