From an orchestral-feeling intro track the sound blends well into Dogstar (which maintains Hybrid's signature orchestral string themes), leading through a mixture of up- and downbeat tracks (the distinctive title track I Choose Noise and the much darker Choke being personal favourites) and ending again with a clear orchestral theme in Just For Today. It's the best Hybrid album to date, drawing on a blend of their previous work for a much more rounded experience than they've been attributed in the past.

While having listen to both Hybrid and Einaudi for the last few weeks a lot I fear that we have been missing (or I read over it in this thread)

EMOTIONAL TECHNOLOGY
BT has that rare gift of combining a variation of electronical instruments and then combine that with some high pitch, sometimes to heavy breathing vocals, which gives his tracks often a rather dreamy feeling. I always get the feeling when listening to BT that I am listening to a soundtrack and that it always fits to a large variety of moments and activities. All in all a definate 'must have' in your collection if you also like Hybrid, ATB and Ludovico Einaudi
