Headphone Commute Review

Headphone Commute | 12/24/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"It takes me a great effort to listen through the entire album in one sitting. And it's not because I'm ADHD, or because it's a double disk release. It's because the sound is soothing and hypnotic. Thus, within a couple of tracks, I find myself drifting through space enveloped by gentle atmospheric music, and next thing I know, I'm completely zoned out. In this collection of unreleased and B-sides tracks, Jonas Munk mixes up dreamy shoegaze and ambient synth sweeps with airy beats and soft vocals, that lullaby you into a deep, deep, deep well of oblivion. A few albums on my iPod are reserved for airplane travel (The Future Sound of London's Lifeforms is one of them - because of its "in between states" quality), and this collection, in no doubt, will be added to that list [I guess that explains why I only remember the very first tracks... heh]. RIYL: Arovane, Xela, M83. Favorite tracks: Summer Haze, A Real America, and then I drift off..."
