The official press release that accompanied this CD through my letter box claimed influences from Electro, Techno, Drum and Bass and House, many inspired by Guyver’s love of movies. It starts off with a nice chunky beat at around 140 BPM with some nice use of piano and acoustic guitar with atmospheric noises, especially in track 2 (The Celestine Prophecy) that is classic Guyver. It’s all pretty solid fair, well produced and sharp with the required uplifting elements of Trance and the drive in the basslines and beat of a harder sound. As you progress through the CD the Influences start to become apparent. There no doubt as you head past tracks 5 and 6 (Jazz Hand, Heaven & Hell) that there’s some DnB in there with Heaven and Hell standing out particularly well for some stomping action which for some reason sounds like it should be faster than it actually is. Synth stabs are underlayed by a great big fat dirty bassline and chord changes highlighted with subtle female vocal. Great stuff. 

As you head on through the momentum is maintained and its now the techno influences reveal themselves. There’s nothing over complicated and fussy here, the uplifting elements from the earlier tracks are replaced with shorter breakdowns and greater use of percussion with only minimal synth patterns and twisted stabs. While the weight of the tracks undoubtedly grow through the progression of the CD the BPM doesn’t and it’s perhaps for this reason that for the second half of the CD seems to be weaker. I’d have liked the sum of the parts to add up to something greater and for me he doesn’t quite pull that off. It does get slightly repetitive but being from a single producer whose style is well known I guess that’s to be expected. Having said that it is very well done and sure to find supporters in both listeners and DJ’s alike.
