I came upon this album looking for improvised music, but was a bit disappointed when I found this album. Not because it sounded bad, no.. far from it. It just didn't sound improvised the least bit! It's that well done. The album is has a lot of stuff going on, but still manages to be pretty calm.

Really nothing bad to say about it, although I'd love to see you experiment with more ambient soundscapes. :)

Fantastic!. If you are into experimental live music, don't miss this album!. One man band? The answer: unbelievable looping wizardry. Mouth beatbox is enjoyable. Also those jazzy phrasing with sax and EWI demonstrate that we are in front of an accomplished performer. References? I'm going to try with only this one: Jon Hassel's "Aki Darbari Java [magic realism]". One of my favourite albums of all times!. Skilled live loopist!.

Fans of serious music - don't miss this one.
It was very intriguing to listen to those experiments, it's a good work but it didn't catch me, too subtle and too abstract for my taste.
I seen this album on Jamendo so many times but never gave it a try, you know why - because of that idiotic cover. I saw that flash cartoon of yours, ok, it's cute, but choosing it for cover...Heh!
Please don't underestimate the importance of a good catchy cover 'cause that what brings the audience to you. It's the first thing people see, they don't see the music behind it, and if the cover design is good they click on it.
How pathetic it may sound it's true.

While this is an album created with a whole lot of technology (especially looping), it's wonderfully human and enjoyable, with even the most technological elements such as the EWI (electronic wind instrument, a non-acoustic sort of sax) brimming with emotion. Standout tracks are the hilariously name Nostril Waltz, the appropriately moving Move Italia, and Cute Furry Thing, which is anchored by a creepy baby voice (really a pitch-shifted adult voice - Per's? - which appears elsewhere too). Though there are many directions taken on the record, from mouth-generated beatbox rhythms to impressive solo sax or EWI excursions to a faint reggae, much of it could be compared to a more earthy Massive Attack, particularly on tracks like "Slip Out Of It". Recommended.
