Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2007-07-04
Ambience, plain and simple. All electronic, droney, per se, but just tearing a page from the Eno, Harold Budd school of sublime chill long hypnotic states. Very mid 80’s “computer” or “planetarium” in tone. Nothing harsh, all tracks long’ish. Could find this playing in a massage studio. Good stuff for chillin. All tracks very similar in tone, approach and feel.

1) dreamy eno’esque ambience
2) ominous tone joins the ambience making this one more interesting, tense
3) ambience, droney
4) dark ambience
5) more
6) ambience but a tad prettier, like Eno’s “Apollo” works
7) more of a cinematic feel
8) darker creepier
9) slow meander, early 80’s computer bell-like
