5.0 out of 5 stars
absolutely fresh,
By marceriksen "marc" (edwardsville, il) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Maritime (Audio CD)
can you imagine an album that involves so many genres in it, many that aren't even of electronic origin? You'll get Maritime.
This album is insanely infectious and yet hard to define, but that won't be a problem since you'll be too busy enjoying how well it flows. An instant favorite in your collection, guaranteed!

Quirky and Fun,

This review is from: Maritime (Audio CD)
Though I have instant favorite tracks on this album... It still took me a while to love the whole cd. After listening to the disc as background music for a while, I have grown to appreciate it. Overall, it's very quirky and fun.

Good Listen, Decent Album,
By incarnadine sky (Austin, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Maritime (Audio CD)
Overall, Minotaur Shock's third full-length release is fairly solid as far as the somewhat arbitrary "folktronica" genre goes. As with Rinse and Chiff-Chaffs and Willow Warblers, Edwards forces the audience to strain to discern a specific melody in any given song, though here he takes an entirely different approach to doing so. The subtle piano lines found in songs such as "The Range" have been replaced with a near cacophony of synth lines that are at certain points overwhelming. While it is a decent listen, it is a definite departure from his more IDM minded releases.
The highlight of the album is most likely "Vigo Bay", a strange mix between glitch and synth pop that honestly defies categorization. There aren't any distinctly remarkable moments on Maritime that other artists haven't explored with more finesse, though I doubt any first time Shock listeners will be thoroughly disappointed.
