Title: HUGE rip-off!
Product review: This disc was produced by Alexander Jero. As with a lot of the releases involving this person, the inserts and the disc itself look very amateurish, even perhaps homemade? The music itself, performed by Yuki and Tomoko Mack, is fine but not often inspired -- the technical skills seem OK, but theirs is a rather cool interpretation of a piece that's supposed to be an outpouring of the American spirit. And the multichannel format here is like an Oscar-winning actor in a pointless cameo; seriously, what was the purpose here, given the sparse instrumentation?But the real problem: As other reviewers here have found, Mr. Jero apparently cannot even be bothered to make a product that actually plays. A few minutes into track 2, the music went silent even though my BD player indicated the track was still playing. I checked connections, examined the disc and restarted the track. Same result.I sent this back. What a RIP-OFF.
