If you like electronic music at all, NJ is a must have. Crystal Machine
is a little less accessible but still good. Majick is quite dodgy in
places and you might need to be a Blake fan to enjoy it.

Tim's problem is that while he really is great on synths when he tries,
he just can't sing and he just doesn't seem to realise this.

This is largely offset on NJ because he's using vocoders or something.
