Some tracks feature from the Voices From The Lake triple EP, Claro Intelecto, Echospace (their wonderful Shinjuku Sedative remix of Kaito) and Abdulla Rashim. Definitely one for the heads.

		<description><![CDATA[Ironically, it can be quite exerting commenting on ambient music. One focuses on the task at hand, but little by little, the slowly evolving drones and ethereal soundscapes hypnotise you into a fugue state&#8230;. and once again all word trails have been lost. However sombre it may sound, ambient music holds an important place in the sonic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Piano Interrupted is the brainchild of  Franz Kirmann (on electronics) and Tom Hodge (on piano). What began as a studio project blending their respective disicplines of classical minimalism and electronica has developed, with the addition of Greg Hall on cello and Eric Young on percussion, into a fully-formed improvising quartet. In a 2010 review of their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I found a really nice (and exceedingly rare) interview with David Alvarado today. What strikes me the most about David Alvarado&#8217;s output is the quality of his albums. Specifically Mayasongs on Peacefrog (2002), the Sunkiss album (with Kenneth Graham) Unfiltered Sky on Plastic City (1998) and the Transfiguration album on NRK (2004). That&#8217;s not to say he has been slacking on the [...]]]></description>

Introduced through a mutual friend, a similar partiality to certain musical strains transpired between us. I was genuinely surprised then to find out at a later date Mike was constructing a pop album under his B-Movie Lightning moniker. I was surprised even [...]]]></description>
