CD Reviews

Beautifully Asthetic...ambient electronica with groove!
Matthew J. Erhardt | 11/05/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I just picked this up a couple of weeks ago, and man, it's really cool! Being an avid Porcupine Tree fan, I sort of expected this to be the stuff that Richard would've wanted PT to sound like...not at all! He does his own thing, and does not short you on imagination and synth-ingenuity.



The music itself is ambient, ethereal, moody with chillout-esque rhythms cloaked thoughout the album. There's sort of an ethnic feel to the opening track, while at times sounding New Wave retro here and there...imagine Orbital meets Radiohead's Kid A (this album is entirely instrumental), and you'll get a pretty good idea of what this is about. Again, don't expect 'watered-down Porcupine Tree leftover' ideas; this to me effectively demonstrates what kinds of sounds Mr. Barbieri can concieve, create and produce on his own.



All in all, a great listen - a good 'massage-of-the-ears' type album, and a great release from Snapper (Porcupine Tree's current label)...kick back, relax, and enjoy the treat...if you like what Mr. Barbieri does in PT, you won't be disappointed."
