Comments:
Again, a hint of guitars in an otherwise completely synthetic track. It's a bit slower than 'Enjoy The Silence', and the mood and feel is just perfect for the lyrics.
'Beat box' is quite close to the album version, but a bit extended, whereas the 'capitol' is almost entirely unrecognizable (sp?). The beat is different, the sounds are different, the bassline is different, it's got a lot of samples not found on the album version etc. Not until after about two minutes you realise what track it really is - if you're observant, that is. The reference is quite subtle, but once you've heard it there's no doubt. It's a pretty interesting mix, though, even if it's not very close to the original.
'Kaleid' is sort of an instrumental 'techno' track; quite a lot like a mix of the early 90:s techno and late 80:s acid. Rather good, IMHO.
