Interesting stuff, but I agree that it's a bit repetitive for my taste. Oriental voyage had some good moments, although I'm not a fan of stereotyping geographic locations or musical "genres" into clumps.

Lost souls was also cool - this kind of highly repetitive, rather straightforward (I don't mean that in a negative way) music is definitely worth listening to, but in my opinion it's a different kind of listening than a lot of other music on this avant garde/electronic forum. I think it's more background music, nothing that draws too much attention from the listener... it leans more towards pop than art music. I wouldn't be surprised to hear these tracks on a film soundtrack one day.

This raises a bigger question (and one that's probably already been discussed) - why the hell did they lump avant-garde and electronic together into one forum??? Some electronic music is avant garde, and some avant garde music is electronic, but they're in no way synonymous or even similar genres. All sharks live underwater, but not everything underwater is a shark.
