    If you like Classic Goa Trance listen to track 8. It's a good track for the year 1993.

      The first HIA album starts strong, bridging the "gap" between bleep techno and ambience. Soft pads and hooks intertwine with blips, bleeps, qwirky percussion, electro flavourings and distinct proto-IDM-tinged atmospheres. The same goes for Freefloater. Both are mid-90s ambient classics but their reach extends beyond that of an insomnia cure, mostly because they escape easy pidgeonholing. Recommended.

            My friends and I used to use Delta as the standard test of bass response for speakers. If only I had it now!
