Strawberry, mid-paced, with a fine structure and melody, artfully done. Very confident expression from the outset. It makes its stance and sticks to it. Nice, minimalist feel, especially up to and including the crescendo. No is next and is a wonderful blending of noise and moving form. Draught starts quietly, seems almost sinister. Synth layers are added to the build up. Rhythm is drawn in and adds to the flavour, tastes good!
Surrender has a percussive birth, to which is added noises in appropriate places, symbiosis. Again, quite mellow to start, with a nice ambience. Again, quite minimal in places but not brash at all. Gash sounds darkest so far, with a superb, deep, grumbling melody, over which layers of percussion keep the pace. Flourishes of synth take us over ground that is less well-trodden. Nice result and a splendid mix of noises, sounds and rhythms.
Lastly, Strawberry Jam. It's like a robotic, minimalist, dub version of Strawberry. I loved it. Overall, a really nice collection of tracks, good job done.
Hi Ivan. I'm glad you enjoy it. For me, it's a difficult exercice to write a review. I like the way you make it because reading them, it gives an idea of what one will listen to. That's why i'd like to thank you for promoting music and artists in general... Good job done

Thanks for that, I'm in a changing mood at the moment and looking through my efforts, for some more responses. Sorry to be so slow in replying. I am finding I have writer's block at the moment, what will come of it who knows. I enjoy your sounds and the effort you have made to create and share them is appreciated. I see a review sometimes as a lure, which is sometimes successful. I think too many people grab the music and run, looking at the stats on some albums. However, not being in a position to contribute in a money sense gives me the opportunity to listen to some cracking, new music and, hopefully be able to say something positive and honest about it. We all need a bit of encouragement at times, I guess... Thanks again.
