I too bought a bootleg long time back and have heard the one on spotify too and I felt it was a bit too laidback and the beats-while nice-somewhat uninspired; not as good as I expected. I don't know, I think he would have made a better album in like 93 or so when beats were hyper and less minimalist and repetitive. He was very good with bridges, switchups, filtered basslines, layering etc. and to my memory, most of this record was straight loops. I may be wrong though, I need to play it again. Actually, I prefer some of his later albums.

I loved the "Mad scientist'' 12" though-that's an ill cut, I just wish more songs were on that level...
