Tue, 26 Apr 05: the id Multiple Personality Disorder Album Review Ben Reviewed 2005-03-08  Machine & The Synergetic Nuts – Leap Second Neutral Energetic Japanese old-school fusion, with nods to Miles and Canterbury prog. They mix in some modern sounds (like breakbeat style drums and noisy solos) with the throwback synths and guitar noodles for a nice effect. *1. Fast fusiony “In a Silent Way” start, then gets loud *2. Mysterious fast noir-soundtrack groove 3. Light groove, shows bits of the bland “dark side” of fusion 4. Slinky understated groove turns into elevator music *5. Intense, driving groove 6. Slow start, then bouncy funk 7. Ponderous & loud *8. Agitated motion, a bit of psych 9. Mellow elevator ballad Ben B 3/7/04 Track Listing 1. M-B   5. Stum 2. Monaco   6. Oz 3. Trout   7. Solid Box 4. Neutral   8. Texas   9. Normal
