Reviews & Discussion
Excellent sound! A Vinyl release of this would be awesome but I suppose the silent parts on glitchy releases must be preserved as "clean" as possible. The "electric love" track for me is the mind blower of the album. A track of skill demonstration.
One of the best albums of 2003. It's a smooth, well-produced amalgam of post-Autechre beats, musique concrete, ambient, chamber music, and acoustic folk. The most remarkable thing is that all of this flows together into a seamless whole. With moments both bizarre and beautiful, mindbending and heartwrenching, "The Houseband Spirit" is one of the year's most succesful electronic journeys.
