Woot, new Kaito? Will be on the lookout for this for sure.

I've heard the samples from this one as well, sounds like a really nice album. Definitely nice lush sounding stuff as you said, not something I'd expect out in a club although some tracks have a heavier 4/4 kick.

Having a listen thru the samples on juno just now. An absolutely amazing album.

Stand outs for me:

- Life Goes On
- Hundred Million Light Years
- Holding A Baby

Totally amazing as always from this guy.

Bought this a while ago and i think i like this more than Special Life or its beatless companion Special Love. Holding A Baby and Hundred Million Light Years stand out for me as well. Heard the latter one first on Watanabe's mix CD "Sounds Of Instruments 01" late last year and liking it alot ever since.

considering the samples it gets better from track 5 till the end. my fav is life goes on. quite nice overall.

this is some pretty atmospheric stuff. great to fall asleep to

this album is different than others, this style is quite new to me, but I like it, very emotional album

very very nice stuff. Need to listen to it again tonight to make a better judgement, but this is quality

edit: after listening again i stand by what i said earlier. Top 5 stuff in terms of albums this year IMO

Finally picked this up and listening to it now. Very aural and atmospheric, yet somehow it could be considered danceable. You can tell a considerable amount of thought and work went into every facet of the tracks. No detail was overlooked, and it helps that the music is quite beautiful.

underrated! deserves a better rating than this binary universe imo..

likewise, ordered it earlier today purely on the fact everyone is raving about it. still at �7.50 its got to be worth a listen!

it's nothing short of excellent. got this like some weeks after i posted the thread, didn't leave my cdplayer that week, still listen to it alot, mostly in bed when going to sleep.

I don't know, but certainly not with This Binary Universe, two different kinds of music.
