But unlike thunder, this sound became louder, like a massive approaching train.
In contrast to Yorke's low-key approach, Massive Attack brought a full band to crunch through their eerie, doom-drenched back catalogue with graphics that pondered fish stocks, police brutality and Palestine, powering their way through Angel and into a sweeping Unfinished Sympathy.
To approach Massive Attack I composed something thinking of Massive Attack's world.
But the approach of Massive Attack, Daft Punk and their peers was not based on exploiting familiarity; only the real cratedigging headz ever knew the sources they were drawing on.
The research advances described in Jon Cohen's excellent and hopeful News Focus story in Science are the result of a massive effort including approaches to research that, while not completely new, have become much more common and important in recent years.
The present result emphasizes the complementarities of both SuperSAGE and other massive sequencing approaches.
During the past years, the arrival of massive sequencing approaches enabled the sequencing of very large transcriptome portions for very favourable costs in relation to output.
Early massive sequencing approaches producing 50 nt (Genome Analyzer, Solexa/Illumina) to 200 nt (454 Roche) effective reads with a modest average quality only allowed accurate exploration of diversity at the phylum level.
In the last couple of years, massive sequencing approaches made it possible to gather information from thousands of complete ESTs, extending the available sequence information for previously under-studied organisms.
A main enabler for this so called massive MIMO approach will be the adoption of higher carrier frequencies, also termed millimeter-wave communication, as it enables to considerably decrease the size of the antenna arrays.
