Possibly the greatest Helicopters ever begins with a repetitive and vaguely melancholy keyboard line from Magner, while the other three provide some minimalist atmosphere. After a short, tense breakdown, Magner returns to this theme, layering on other ideas and pushing the jam forward. After another breakdown it reaches a kind of melancholy space, and Barber becomes more of a presence, repeating two very simple mournful riffs. The jam builds up, and Magner announces his return to the forefront in an explosive way. The jam builds up to a triumphant peak from here, with some excellent Barber shredding leading up to it.

It covers a few different themes but for the most part it stays within the box, taking a brief detour through more tense territory but mostly following along the path of a triumphant and delightful jungle jam.

An eerie, minimal trance theme that builds up to one of the strongest chase sections ever.

A monolithic bliss trance theme that builds up to a gorgeous Basis peak.
