Aspen - Music From Passing Cars

Aspen has progressed a lot with this album 'Music From Passing Cars'. He seemed to have turned it up switchin from the more minimalistic leftfield, tech-house approach...and moved on to a more active semi-glitch, dub atmosphere with a lot of ambientesque space throughout the album. 'Music From Passing Cars' in my opinion is his best album for me personally and on a technical level. Tracks like 'Frozen Soy Milk Experiment' and 'Car Heirarchy' touch a new level style of ambient, dub that Aspen has never approached. He also has seemed to incorporate a little of his indie-electronic sound from his main project under 'Signer', these incorporations are more noticeable with tracks like 'Doodling Banana Car' and 'Running Riches'. And of course you got your typical Aspen tracks like 'Ice Cream in Bath Water' and 'Now With Bassline'. This truly is a must have for Aspen/Signer fans or for those that enjoy the chill styles of ambient/dub. Enjoi ;)

this album is sick, truly sick! it has so much space, an incredible sense of melody and a leisurely flow to it. most of the tracks are amazing on their own, but this is really a synergetic album, best listened to from start to finish, where the whole is definitely greater than the summ of the parts. melodies and themes resurface, basslines repeat and morph from track to track, drum patterns sound familiar from song to song, or do they...? nonlinear, for lack of a better word. highly recommended.
