Coffee shops are a sort of symbol of that.<BR/><BR/>I see it as a sort of dialogue between the male and the female. It's as if he's not even sure what communication means any more. They're both afraid of intimacy, alternately loving and rejecting one another. "Sun rays" has a really delusional feel to it, like an ironic happiness.<BR/><BR/>And then "Let me be me". Being yourself but not really knowing whether you'd be able/allowed to identify/socialize with others freely if you wanted to. It's my favourite as well. It's a really cyberpunk track :)<BR/><BR/>Another track that really reminded me of this was "me want punani" on "Abstract Thought" - it's almost like an afterword to this album, where the two voices saying "You mesmerize me" and "Come and get it" just sort of trail off into infinity.<BR/><BR/>In terms of politics I think it's Detroit techno's piece de resistance - because it's coolly indicting the whole postmodern sort of urban culture that it has become synonymous with..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
