A Guy Called Gerald - Essence (2000)


Dreamy downtempo/drum n bass. Essence was the followup to Black Secret Technology -- a masterpiece that looms large over the rest of A Guy Called Gerald's discography -- and can be heard as a comedown. Where that record piled on layer after layer of sound, Essence is a restrained, comparatively minimal, and vocal-centric affair.

Track listing:
1. The Universe
2. The First Breath
3. Humanity
4. Multiplies
5. Fever (Or a Flame)
6. Could You Understand
7. Alien Report
8. Glow
9. Beaches & Deserts
10. Final Call
11. I Make It
12. Universal Spirit
13. Hurry to Go Easy
14. Scale Circle
15. Landed

It's just my humanity getting the better of me

As Is. (1997)
