Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2009-01-15
Layered strange experimentations with organic sounds (saxaphone, harmonium) and tape loops and field recordings (e.g. rainstorms). Rhythmic in places but mostly just subtle and chill noise collage. Recommended.

1) water and minimal tones, collage of organic sounds and analog moog with a subtle sound bed, intensifies then chills out at end with dreamy synth
2) dreamy with sounds of rain, rain storm, saxophone and weird electronics
3) saxophone continues, with creepy underlayering
4) quiet rain falling with aquatic sounding percussion
5) (relatively) brief track with sax in front with minimal keyboard
6) harmonium, melodica with looped rhythmic wet noise accompaniment, creepy
