Great Album!

A few real gems here, try tracks 13, 14, and 18!Track 13, the Chameleon remix is smooth DNB. It has an awesome Ferris Buller Sample... "Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." Classic!

A great collection of early Evolution records tracks, though a little spotty as a full album listen because of the non-mark/tom filler-interludes breaking up the brilliance. here's the run down: Tracks 2, 4, 6: Reload(Mark) - Tracks 8, 9, 10: Reload & E621(Mark & Tom) - Tracks 13, 14: Link(Mark) 13: Remix by Chameleon(Mark & Tom) - Track 18 : Link & E621(Mark & Tom) - Track 17: Jedi Knights(Mark & Tom) - Track 16: Mystic Institute(Mark) - Track 11: The Rebus Project (Tom) Everything else is pretty much inconsequential and a waste of your downloads, but: 3, 7: The Horn(Stephen Horne) - 12, 15: Wishmountain(Matthew Herbert) - 5: Jak & Stepper (Dave Kempston & Horne) - 1, 19, 20 (Link & E621) - the "warp records" release of this, here on emusic is only 12 credits for all 20 tracks - but I would just get the two Mark/Tom Exclusives to this comp (tracks 13 & 17) and seek out the remastered/reissues with all these tracks plus b-sides not included on this comp at bleep.com

confusing description

wait, so is this all Mark Pritchard and Tom Middleton? It's harder to connect with the music if I don't know the artists

A Theory of Evolution is a compilation of releases on Evolution Records (consisting mostly of Global Communication aliases Reload, Link, Chameleon, and Jedi Knights). Tracks from the first three Evolution EPs by Reload are intriguing listens for the acid- and Detroit roots-techno originally favored by Pritchard and Middleton, though later stylistic changeups make appearances as well, like “Pubic Funk” by Jedi Knights. – John Bush
