i particularly like the second track, "with you, i'm me." not as hot on the rest, though "backshredding" is growing on me.

so is he back in the game or has time passed him by? your opinions?

This is an old one unfortunately.. I love his 90's stuff but it all went a bit wrong with the terminal M / music man period.. i think he alienated the fans of HIS sound by trying to sound like everyone else.. and by doing that kind of just faded into the beige techno background..[IMO]

LOL i spoke too soon. didn't realize it was a re-release...figured he was just unstuck in time!

You have a point, but then again he did move up a level and did his thing on a bigger stage, which presumably was what he was aiming for. My one and only time at I Love Techno (in 2002 or 2003) and he was the best act at it - him and two Yamaha RS7000s killing a room of 6,000 + people. And he definitely didn't sound like anyone else!
I don't think he sold out on his sound, sure some of the releases were a bit more 'accessible' after time, but for me he still had a decent hit rate. Only got this a little while ago, was from 2002, been playing the first remix on it a bit lately: Rebus Tape - Coding Style EP (12", EP) at Discogs (http://www.discogs.com/Rebus-Tape-Coding-Style-EP/release/59871)

Yeah I used to love Berkovia.
No idea what happened to him, I lost track.
If he went on temrinal M I`m guessing he started following rather than leading.
Did he go mnml?

Following rather than leading - only dead fish go with the flow....

I don't know how I should take that- as an insult or a compliment.... :S
