New Musical Express
A modest 40-minute "mini-album," Ring Of Saturn sees our hero back in his natural habitat, immersed in the frantic, speed-crazed breakbeats and warped dubscapes on which he built his reputation. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

3 out of 5 stars A classic case of half the album good, half naff..........2002-03-12

Firstly, the production on this album is fantastic- clear, crisp and precise- true audio pleasure. Sadly, not all the tracks are much to write home about. 'Mother Vip' is a work of dark and twisted brilliance and'What you won't do' is effortlessly cool.
'HyenaI' and 'Kaiser Salsek' are also well crafted tracks. The rest of the album is dull and lurching, the two penultimate tracks are scarcely worth listening to and the Left Hand Man mix of 'What You Won't Do For Love' is not bad without being much special. My version of the album does not include the final three tracks listed so I can not comment on them, however I would recommend this album to those of you after something a little more unconventional than your usual jump-up drumnbass.Definetly worth a listen...

2 out of 5 stars just the jungle , PLEASE..........1999-12-25

Timeless , we all agree was the lick. The follow-up ROS just got too experimental. Drum and Bass fans definately pick this one up, but , if this is your first venture check else where. Goldie you're the man but let's get back to the basics.

5 out of 5 stars Nothing like the new mix Incredible.......1999-06-26

This album isn't all that good, but await the new album Incredible

4 out of 5 stars Better than Saternz Return........1999-03-14

But he needs something better, or a good kickin'. Whats up Goldie mate?? eh? girlfriend dump you or something. If so sorry to hear it mate but just cheer up ok? nice one.

    Product Description

    "With it's acid-inspired (if not induced!) cover art, were it LP-sized you might mistake the debut album from The Seventh Ring of Saturn for some obscure '60s artifact, and indeed the seven selections - referencing the more kaleidoscopic, chiming psych-folk moments of The Byrds and Beatles as well as expeditions into denser trip-prog and zone-out territory - offer little reason to doubt that assumption. It's the latest group from local multi-instrumentalist and record retailer Ted Selke, but while we've grown accustomed to hearing Ted in a supporting role in his many groups over the eons (including but not limited to Joybang!, Arms Akimbo and the pre-Black Mr. Crowe's Garden, not to mention a drumming stint in short-lived Massachusetts band Yellow Dog Contract in the mid-80s alongside future Jane's Addiction member Eric Avery - he has a tape of YDC playing some party back in the day, ask him about it if you're interested), The Seventh Ring finds him stepping front and center. Four of the CD's tracks were composed by Selke, alongside covers of George Harrison and Vangelis [Papazoglu]. Catch them at their release show, Feb 24th at the Drunken Unicorn, along with Beefheart trib act Big Eyed Beans From Venus and Lay Down Mains" -- Jeff Clark (in Stomp and Stammer - Feb '07)

    3 out of 5 stars My this is crummy............2001-03-07

    I purchased this after hearing good things about one and a half years ago.. when I was still into DnB. Though I thought I liked it at the time.. it has gradually become apparent that this is just plain bad music. Though some brief moments on this CD redeem it a bit, it is totally out of proportion in that 95% of this CD is nightmarishly repetitive and unimaginative tripe that would bore even the most rusted Metalhead out there. I hate to bring star averages down.. so this gets three.. but just barely. Two or three tracks have hints of excellence: take 'Hyena I' for example, great sound effects and slick breakbeat. 'Kaiser Salsek' has a cool rooster/guitar hybrid noise that maintains interest for approximately 12-15 seconds. However, vomit-inducing tracks like 'What You Won't Do For Love' (all fifty versions of it) along with the mindlessly repetitive ones like 'Mother VIP' and 'Seen by Sound..Bred by Anger' or whatever the heck it's called are a sorry excuse for music and almost offensive to the listener! Don't get me wrong, there IS good DnB out there.. even repetition is good if it's good or executed well, but this CD is simply sickening. If you want DnB, go for Photek like the previous reviewer's suggestion. He's right on there. I just suggest not throwing your money away on this one, because it was destined for a bargain bin before it was released.

    4 out of 5 stars Good EP!.......2000-07-11

    Aptly titled,it is definitely a colourful orbit around a larger body of work(Saturnzreturn).Also, I see that he has sort of moved over to the more precise,minimalistic style of DnB,the kind that is implemented so well by artists like Photek.Goldie in no way can match up to Photek when it comes to this,but he definitely does a very good job trying!

    1)MOTHER VIP(VOCAL MIX) : An eight minute summary of the hour long orchestration "Mother" from Saturnzreturn.I've made a 23 minute edit of the original track(since it is painfully long to sit and listen to! ),and the Vocal Mix on this EP is nothing compared to the edit I listen to!

    2)WHAT YOU WON'T DO FOR LOVE : Very nice track! Lush,soulful vocals by Diane Charlamagne(the Goldie/Diane team has always made brilliant stuff! ),an excellent chill-out tune!

    3)HYENA 1 : Easily one of the best pieces here,dark bassline,very fitting sounds and samples used,everything just falls into place!

    4)KAISER SALSEK : Extremely WILD! Some excellent beats,get ready for a ride with this one! Could've been slightly more intresting,but a fairly good tune.

    5)HEARD BY SOUND,JUDGED BY COLOUR,SEEN BY BLIND : Kicks off with a nice beat.I don't know why,but it reminds me faintly of the brilliant "Dark Angel" by the great Doc Scott even though it does not come anywhere close to matching the excellence of "Dark Angel"!

    6)UNKLE : This song is absolutely EXCELLENT! This track never fails to keep the listener interested,listen to it,you'll know what I mean! Well done,Goldie!

    7)WHAT YOU WONT DO FOR LOVE(LEFT HAND MAN MIX):Nicely implemented remix of "What you won't do for Love" by Doc Scott.The "Dark Angel" sample came as a bit of a surprise,but definitely a pleasant one! Doc Scott is one of the greatest,though,I can't see him making anything below absolute excellence ! (be sure to check out "Lost In Drum And Bass" by him).

    A major complaint I have about this album is that the European version does not have the last three songs viz.,WHAT YOU WON'T DO FOR LOVE(BELIEF SYSTEM MIX),TEMPER TEMPER(GROOVERIDER REMIX),TEMPER TEMPER(OPTICAL REMIX).These songs are very good,so make sure you buy the US Version! Also,be sure to get Goldie's recent album "INCredible Sound Of Drum n Bass",this album is truly INCREDIBLE,it'll blow you away!
