So wow, this is gorgeous. A mix of trance, glitch, and just general electronica. I think I'm going to buy this when I get money, I could see myself throwing this on for a two hour car trip and just being in heaven the whole time. Definitely recommend to anyone.

This Binary Universe was not only a defining electronic record of 2006, but it may even be remembered centuries from now - and with good reason, as it far exceeded all expectations fans and colleagues alike had for Brian Transeau (aka "BT"). Mastered in 5.1 surround sound, it was a sprawling, cross-genre piece of epic proportions - jazz, downbeat, house, ambient, and even classical-bent soundtrack influence, it was all there. This alone is the primary detractor from These Hopeful Machines. It's not that BT fails in any sense of the word - quite the contrary actually. His latest machination is bound to have lasting appeal on top of the electronic charts, in the clubs, and all over the globe in places where people actually care about their house music.rRecommended Tracks:r"Suddenly"r"The Emergency"r"Rose of Jericho"r"Love Can Kill You"r"Le Nocturne De Lumiere"

Solid album that is far too overlong. Highly recommend the tracks The Rose of Jericho, A Million Stars & Le Nocturne De Lumiere

The box fucking vibrates and hums, what do we need the music for?

When this album works, it really works. When it doesn't, well, it's still not awful. The first disc is definitely the stronger of the two, though.
