You are right that it is not the Oily in sound, but I think that the some of the tricks and ploys played out on the this techno ramble sound pretty fresh, and the sounds and effects created could translate very well into some of the Oils more ambient pieces (eg. Great Gibber Plain -RW single version, Poets and Slaves....)
