You gotta wonder why so many are linking your taste to Scaruffi... Please tell me your not a disciple.

By the gods, this is so far removed from my own tastes. I don't like any of the albums you've listed that I've heard. I won't rate it, however, as there are too many albums I haven't heard.

Dream Theory In Malaya brought me here. One of the best charts. It's heavily influence by Scaruffi, but so what. There's few artists that are new to me that I'm going to check out. Kudos for putting Faust at top spot.
