5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! Great debut CD - the new "Human League", October 22, 2005

I really enjoy this album. Very electronic, simple yet complex at the same time. The singer on this album sounds like a laid-back version of the Human League, except the songwriting is much better (when I popped this into my CD player, my wife thought it was a new Human League album that was far superior to their recent - and past - effots).

Favorite tracks are "Simplicity", and the previously released "XRV" and "Satellite". Other standouts include "Chant". Highly recommended if you are looking for some song-based techno music that is not too retro.

I've been waiting for YEARS for this CD to be released, and I have to say that it does not disappoint! Every track is a work of art, an intricate blend of dynamic and moving music, soothing vocals, and a great message, to boot! I love this CD! The only thing that could make this CD more perfect would be a little more variety in styles/tempos or a little more "danceability", but by no means am I saying that this album is boring! It's great fun to listen to in any setting, whether on headphones, computer, or even in a noisy car. ;)

I think this is an excellent album with a strong, positive message and I highly reccommend it!

I bought this CD after hearing one of the artist's songs on a compilation CD. What a pleasant surprise. The tunes are very catchy, but written and produced with a sophistication that goes beyond many synth-pop records. I've gotten to know these songs so well because I've found myself wanting to hear them over and over again. I hope there will be more from this artist in the future.
