Dude, ACSS is a genuine mishmash from the get-go. That's their whole premise. I don't follow how you can like their other tunes and not be ok with the meld on Big Cat.

Nothing wrong with that, as long as they speak in the same rhythm |

This is an absolutely mesmorizing album... a must have for any world or eclectic listener.
The definition of driving music, and one of the very, very few RP cuts which I've given a 10 (check out my rating dist).

This song makes me want to move! That's one driving beat and tempo.
(I'd like to say something more enlightening, but the day I'm having at work has sapped my mind dry. It's moving as hard and fast as this song.) |

With most of their songs, I like what they get to, but don't like how long it takes to get there. Each of the sections that they establish as they build could be a bit shorter and the song would be better for it.

Quite possibly my new favorite album. Amazing track. Listen to this one with a subwoofer - there are alot of great lows in there.

When I first heard this I had to look to see which TD song actually made it onto the list and was shocked to see that this wasn't them.
I find it curious that this gets such a good reaction while the only TD song that made it onto the list was from the Risky Business soundtrack while half a dozen TD tracks have been rejected |

Very nice indeed! I usually am not the biggest fan of electronic music- unless of course it is done well. this was so groovy and really helped me get through some tough work which required speed and concentration! sweet.

As clichéd as it may sound, this song was an aural journey. And I loved the trip. Most excellent.
