Keep on playing it!.......2004-01-22
The sounds are something you would expect on the 'Cafe del Mar' or Hed Kandi 'Served Chilled' compilations, but these tracks don't become bland or uninteresting pieces of 'muzak' on repeated listens, for this very reason I highly recommend this.
For something this fresh, it's a steal.
A Little Gem.......2003-12-21
This EP works so well because there's enough substance behind the dreamy washes of minor key strings to keep you interested without breaking the mood. Repeated listenings (and the music just asks to be re-played) reveal the thought that's gone into the layers here.
This is an excellent late night listen. I look forward to an album!
Smooth, chilled out grooves with strings-a-plenty..........2003-12-16
With Strings Attached is mainly instrumental but contains an interesting mix of elements all underpinned by a copious amount of 'STRINGS'. Devushka (Beautiful) is my personal favourite. It begins with an orchestral tuning session before a moving string introduction and a sweet percussive beat kick in. This is all overlayed with a soulful female vocal sample. There is a wonderful climax to this track with live saxaphone, and the blissfully chilled out sounds of waves crashing against the beach - all good and there are still four more tracks after this. Apparently it was written in 1999, but released in 2003 - let's just hope it doesn't take four years for the album to appear!
I would say, JUST BUY IT!
