Review Text
2012 solo release from the Electronic musician and Emeralds member. Steve Hauschildt returns with dense and lush arrangements that conjure introspective atmospheres which reveal not only his contribution to Emeralds, but his ever-evolving strengths as a solo artist. Recorded in Vancouver and Cleveland, nearly 20 different instruments were culled from the 1960's to the present. Because of it's rich instrumentation, there are classic yet cutting-edge sound-scapes fashioned out of the idiosyncrasies innate to the copious synthesizers, drum machines, and vocal processing used on the album. A substantial work, Hauschildt hones in on the place of voice and androgyny in music.
