I haven't listened to all of them well, and I haven't heard Plight & premonition, Flux & Mutability and When Loud Weather Buffeter Naoshima yet. (I'm still progress in Japan.)
but soon I'm going to get Naoshima. :D

in my early impression, Alchemy.

I couldn't vote for any of these. I love them all (well perhaps not too fond of Naoshima). If I had to choose a particular track then it would possibly be the version of Wave on Camphor or Big Wheels Hits Shanty Town.

i have one of the songs that i use in a "slide" presentation but i can't seem to figure out how to get it out of iPhoto and put it out there for people to view. If I had .Mac still i could upload it there for viewing.... oh well...

I haven't listened to all of them so I don't think I should vote. I am however absolutely in love with "Where the Railroad Meets the Sea", it really is one of the most precious pieces of music to me. Simple and haunting...and just ace really...
