im not reviewing the album here,but i must answer AJE,same as i answered his gay alter ego on Psynews's forum:
Obviously, its very easy to be dissapointed after STRANGE ATTRACTORS - i don't really know many artist who released a "milestone" album, and duplicated this with their next one. it's just not so easy.
From a DJ point of view,i can just say that u better buy some earplugs,because this album is going to be played TO DEATH in this season's open airs 
Full-on,flat,boring or whatever u wanna call it - after playing most of this album in a few parties,i can testify Freq still is the dancefloor king when it comes to progressive psytrance.
Some of these tracks brought VERY big smiles to many many people around europe already,and the main example being track 6- beatstreet,which i really dont think copies Dnox and beckers - i beleive u refer to the Arrpegiated synthline in the break,and on this the latters sure dont have a copyright .Been done before them and will be done after them.
This track really causes a (good) mess on the dancefloor,quite distinctivley more than whatever was played before and after.
It doesnt mean its good - but u just cannot decide with your own taste,what track the world needs or not.
Also,the only clear full-on elements in this album ,are notable on track 5 which is simply faster than the rest of the album.
So,i can surely understand the let-down after FREq's previous efforts .
i also prefer the style of timeless classics such as SHORT LIFE,RETURN ETC ETC,but nevertheless -
Don't forget this is still DANCEFLOOR MUSIC wer'e talking about....
And on that account,i must say,the man has done a damm fine job

He´s done a damm fine job!!!!

I have to say i wasn't much of a fan of progressive psytrance until i heard this album..Can't say about Freq's previous attempts but i think this album is absofuckinlutely brilliant! What i love is that despite being 'progressive' its still got plenty of elements in it so it doesn't get boring..
Some of the tracks here are brilliant they just make you want to get up and dance! I can imagine listening to this music in a big outdoor festival in the summer with a huge smile on my face!
Hats off to Freq you've inspired me!

obviously 'STRANGE ATTRACTORS' is a tough follow up..........but i suppose just to repeat what has been said.........."DAMN FINE JOB".....
i would say it is more 'dance floor' orientated than his previous album.......the quality of the sound is extremely high and clear......
but, i do think that i would like the next album to be a little more 'psychedelic'......whatever that means.... 
Still one of the best prog producers of music for me......

Not as "Psychedelic" as Strange Attractors , this one takes a more dancy direction, altough thats not bad. I like it, really smooth dancy progressive psy. Please do not compare it to his first album, listen to it with a clean slate as if a new artist.
Fav's are Brazil (Brush Mix), Space Noodle,Silent Circuits &  Beatstreet .
