A stone-cold classic work of Electronica. Pretty much defined the ambient house genre of the early 90s.
Production is excellent. The bass is insane. I've been listening to it recently on a new hi fi and I'd forgotten how low it goes.
Sadly the the Orb never bettered this, probably because the genre became so large and copied that it was hard to ever stand out again.
