Beautiful, beautiful music indeed folks. Hope Shlomi starts to get the credit as an all round producer.

Now this was boring.

The first track rips-off those soft bassy pads of Trentemoller's 'Moan' (album version) and since I've heard this, I couldn't get the word 'generic' out of my head for the rest of the listen.

The production is crisp clean, the melodies are usually not bad but it lacks 'something'. Apart from the last year's excellent 'Sea Of Sand', it's got no soul.

He even tries to reproduce that famous Burial sound (or maybe just UK Garage) in 'The Paradise Garage', which was quite a surprise for me. But again, formally he gets almost everything right; he uses that signal noises of a pirate radio, there are some subtle breaks but the most important thing - substance - is missing. You just can't imagine those dark abandoned warehouses when you hear this. In fact, there is nothing that would provoke your imagination.

Expected more from this. In a week I probably won't even know I've ever listened to it.
