It has quite a spacey feel to it, but it's not that interesting of a tune so 7.0
Audiotrack 4B
4/10
I'm not usually a big fan of most guitar sounds and this is no exception. It doesn't really go anywhere and doesn't have that awesome "wtf did they just do there?" moment that so many of their other tunes have. There is a mood there, it's just not my kind of mood I guess.

Lovely track, yet one I don't feel like listening to very often.
7/10
Carcan
This and Red Moss--aren't they the two only un-widely-released tracks on BoC Maxima? (EDIT: not quite right) Love both. Carcan starts out kind of bright and sunny, and towards the end gets a little more bemusing territory. Love the fade-in to Nlogax. Could have been developed more, but then again, not every track can be long and not just a vignette. 7/10
8/10. A slow song that crawls along at a glacial pace. Satellite Anthem Icarus is a relaxing Saturday afternoon in the sun. Vaguely too long, but I'm not sure that is a problem.
Also, I meant to do that. Yeah. No, really. I did.

Absolutely agree that the live version of Telephasic Workshop is superb.

I understand the Aquarius version to be the definitive piece, so scoring weighted towards that:
7/10
A blast - great rapid, fierce percussion, and especially like the tight reversed hits... Really get a sense of 'sod it - let's go for it!' towards the end, which is refreshing. The bassline provides a lot of atmosphere. The real standout in the Aquarius version is the little melody - infinitely better with that classic warm-sounding texture; it actually becomes something very lovely nestled within all the action. That's more like 7 & ½ - BOC Maxima version would be lower, and I'm rounding scores.

awesome track. the synths and drums at the beginning are so dark and intriguing. i really love this track, one of my favorites from the old tunes saga. 7\10
Rue gets a 7/10 for me. It probably doesn't deserve it but it was one of the first BoC songs that I got really addicted to. The reverse drums are awesome. I wouldn't really go out of my way to listen to it now tho.
