This arrived in the post last night and I listened right away. I've gotta say it's fabulous, like a dream with just a little edginess to it. It will likely take a few more listens to fully appreciate its intricacies and delicacies. It's certainly related to The Green Kingdom's previous releases - definitely with Michael's signature to it - but also a development from those.
The remix CD is wonderful too - more a re-invention of the tracks than a straight remix. They're definitely recognisable, but it seems each remixing artist has stamped their own flavour on to the tracks, often with more beats or more glitchiness. I especially like the 13 minute version of 'Wetlands' - absolutely haunting. As the release notes say "These artists take the original compositions into some unexpected and exciting new musical territories"
