Upon listening to it all I could really hear was your typical snare/ bass drum beats in the foreground, with all the other interesting shit in the background. I figured this was just for a few songs, and with 17 to choose from it wouldn't be that big of a deal, but it just seemed to repeat the same process in every song. It was like Flying Lotus just decided to get a basic drum beat down, hit the repeat button, and then knock off for lunch. After going back to the Wiki page to pull up some of the reviews I noticed that the track lengths advertised on Wikipedia were different than the track lengths on my Winamp, but only by 30-40 seconds or so, not enough to convince me that I should download a proper version. Cosmogramma seems to be the antithesis to Aydio's Nonentity which was full of life and a progression of sounds.
