Review by (edited over 8 years ago)
Jigsaw Pieces is one of the most beautiful electronic albums I have ever heard. Many of the tracks, such as Here Comes The Sun and Words, manage to express the sublime feeling that one can experience while viewing a radiant sunset or floating in the ocean at night gazing up at a sky bright with stars. The sounds on this record are deep, soothing, melodic and very funky. The basslines are minimal and low, the drums groove along with crisp sounds and there are majestic washes of synth strings that you can tell are laid down by a classically trained musician, who is has mastered the heartbeat House music should have. I have listened to this album many, many times over and it can still bring a tear to my eye and a warm feeling to my heart. Destined to be a definite deep/tech-house classic for several years to come. Sit back, listen and forget about all your worldly problems.

Yes indeed this is a very good album. I remember listening to some of the tracks on german Evosonic radio(around 1998) on satellite and recording it on a tape, not knowing what that is. We listened to that tape for years and found it amazing. Recently I found out that it's by Timewriter and I immediatelly got a copy. It's really timeless. Since then I got his other albums and mix cds.
