Spotify has the title listed as "The borderless beyond" Personally I prefer the title as listed by RP. Good find.
Found this (these folks) through RP, and promptly scarfed up a copy. Through the main system, this is just fierce (file under: exploratory deep space funk for your lounging & bopping enjoyment). We are deeply indebted to Bill & Rebecca for their exquisite tourguidance. Bumped from 8 to 9; turn it up & apply headphones, if possible.
F-IN' HELL YES!!
\\:D/ This has a nice groove going! :nodhead: "Quite Likeable" sez I! :goodvibes.gif:
Little Fluffy Clouds with The Orb would be nice after this.
...or not. To much spaced out electronica can be dangerous!
Just kinda generic mellow electronica.
My legion of little blue men can beat your legion of little green men!
Liked it until the talking started.

As for this group, I assume they're a takeoff on the Blue Man Group? What's next? Red Man Walking? Purple People Eater? And what would we get if we mixed the greens and the blues? Teal your face? Man, now I gotta go out and get some M&Ms.
Hallo, blue men here?
Yes goodday, green men here. Is yellow man there?
No, gone fishing with red men.

Groove Salad?
I like it.. kind of mellow, reminds me of being on a long drive a few years ago, I went numb after a really bad fight with family ... and this reminds me of that and the drive... its not a painful remembrance, but the feeling of being numb is pretty cool.
A friend called it "being in the *zone*" .. so deep into something that you forget everything else except what you're into.. really wild!!
Under circumstances like that, one can indeed relate to a song like this. Usually, just listening to RP, circumstances like that are lacking though.
Funny, btw, Comfortably Numb is following this one, which connects perfectly to your comment. Bill must have been aware of the fact this song is the right one for becoming numb, or IOW for "being in the zone".This does nothing for me, and no I don\'t hate electronica music. :roll:
Lots of diversity and playfulness in a single track. It\'s not often I hear electronica with so many changes that manages to keep a groove as well...
...and to those here who think tracks like this are simplistic and factory-made...I\'d like to hear you put one together sometime ;)
Good music to buy trendy clothes by.

C'mon, man, how 'bout something at least a little interesting?

Perhaps some Britney Spears would suit your short attention spans better?
Chorus Frogs (Not sure if Western or Eastern) in background.
This is a shame because there\'s plenty of good \"electronica\" out there. Try \"Soma Holiday\" from the \"One A.D.\" compilation, for example.

eh...it\'s generally what i dislike about electronica. too repetitive. Not bad for work, but wouldn\'t like it at home.
Never heard of this band/song, but more would be appreciated. JH
