SPLENDOR AND RAPTURE IN AMBIENT COLLISION....

(5 out of 5 stars)
"....this album is in the same brave pioneering sonic spirit as BRIAN ENO'S "Another Green World" or RADIOHEAD'S "Amnesiac" or SIGOR ROS' "Agaetis Byrjun"....a thoroughly addictive journey by way of distinctive songs with laid-back m/f vocals (two with the splendidly sexy voice of Haco,) indie/electro/third world instrumentation and strange but wonderfully syncopated beats. ONE OF THE BEST RELEASES SO FAR IN 2002. At last, an artist that REALLY knows how to blend world instruments into some challenging indie grooves and textures. SEAWORTHY will seduce you and, I promise, you will be thankful for it! (Make no mistake....this album is lightyears beyond anything produced by the prior band, MACHA.) SEAWORTHY "Ride" is visionary stuff! I recommended it to all adventurous souls who sincerely want to hear tomorrow's music today. Yep, it really IS that good!"
