Re: breaking and entering!!
i agree that Breaking and Entering is in the vein of Ess Gee, but it is much more than a harmless guitar doodle. It is multi-instrumental, orchestral, alteratively minimal and overlayered, quiet and percussive. it basically shows how much UW is capable of in addition to the banging electro-dance tracks that we all know and love.

As an aside, i don't understand the lumping of Ess Gee and Skym...theyr'e very different sorts of tracks. Ess Gee is just guitar, while skym is mostly keyboard. The fact that they are both beatless might warrant comparison, but Skym def. feels like a full "song", which builds and changes. Ess gee is just a nice lil noodle bit. If you're gonna include it with anything, here's the family:
Ess Gee, Blueski, Shudder.


Hmm, just thinking about that 5 least favorites list. i bet if there was a top ten downtempo/ambient tracks, some of those would appear as favorites
