Footnotes

Vassillios - It takes a little while to leave Vassilios territory, but once Magner starts laying down the atmospheric synths it starts to get good. There’s a strong mid-tempo trance jam, an almost mournful Barber crescendo, and finally a breakdown into the Crickets funk section for the “half-inverted” Crickets (a la 5/8/01 Confrontation).

Munchkin Invasion - Another characteristically strong spring 01 Munchkin. The jam slowly departs Munchkin proper until reaching a sinister dnb theme reminiscent of a late 99 Svenghali. The return to Munchkin territory is patient and excellent.
