Wow. This is one of the CDs that Breaking World Records sent me, and I really don�t know what to say or think about it. This is a four track album that is all just musical soundscapes, all electronically-created, and it would be just about perfect if there wasn't one piece of each song that started to give me a headache. Imagine Kraftwerk without horns. Imagine AutoCAD with more musical backing. Imagine coughing on some of these tracks. Now, you�ve got Tumblecatpoofpoofypoof. Really, my review sounds completely harsh and I do not intend it to be. This music is almost perfect just to sit back and fall asleep to, if it wasn�t for the grating noise on some of these tracks. Also, I can see the desire to split the music up into tracks, but the places which this guy cuts at are just not where I would cut them. Extra kudos goes to Josh for his last track, "friends of friends", which proves wrong my earlier statement about this being an all-electronic album. I had to go back to the liner notes and actually find where it says that he plays accordion, but it is completely and utterly real. And, may I say, utterly fabulous, and a great end to a CD that plays more like a Klaus Schultze album than anything. This is some of the clearest live music that I�ve heard, which only heightens my opinion about this act that much more. Get this CD from Breaking World Records at http://www.breakingworldrecords.com . I would, but I already have a copy.
