Re: breaking and entering!!
It strikes me that this album lies more in the vien of clasical than it does electronic. This is the Yared influence obviously, but something I'm sure Underworld were very excited to do. I know it's not minimalism, but it still reminds me of Steve Reich or Phillip Glass.

I highly highly recommend Reich's "Music for 18 Musicians," both as a referrence for how classical music has affected electronic (Kraftwerk were strongly influenced by Reich) and as a stunningly beautiful piece of music. Maybe this would be a way into the album for people who aren't into it at the moment.
