Gas - Pop

Seven tracks of fantastic ambient. Why was the name "Pop" chosen? I have no idea. But this record has nothing to do with pop music.
The album starts without hesitation -- ambient loops, reminiscent of rain. Perfect for a rainy day. The following two tracks envelop the listener in ambience. The fourth track is where it gets interesting (if this is the first Gas album you listen to); a steady pulsating bass drum is added. This is where Gas gets his "ambient techno" label, if you have ever wondered. The two "techno" tracks, four and seven, are absolutely hypnotic. They have the drum beat added, but there are still wonderful layers of ambience.
