All the songs run together and it ranges from dubby to house beats and ambient synths with acoustic and electronic instruments coming in and out of the mix. It's a tough one to fully describe since it's hard to make comparisons to other things. It's unique while still remaining very listenable. It's a two person job by Rollo (Dido's brother) of Faithless and another producer whose name escapes me at the moment.


Yeah, I read a review on Dusted and picked it up, and was glad I did. It's as you described it. It was a kind-of home made job, but parts of it were excellent, and it sounded really nice. Thanks for the reminder. I need to dig this one up after about a year in hiding!
