yup, it is.though i do feel like i'm listening to little axe at various points as they too use old spoken dialogue in the same way.

Kid Koala/Emiliana Torrini album is out. It's nice - a 180 from any of his recorded material in the past. Eric plays all the instruments and employs no sampling and very little turntable manipulation. It's relatively beatless, orchestral and reflective music. Emiliana's vocals edge this into winter lullaby territory.

sounds like his Satellite/Music to Draw To album? beatless, lots of piano and pretty ambiance. haven't heard the new one but that one gets a lot of play around the house.

New album is fit for overlooked albumsThread imo. Yeah it's a downer mostly, kind of like if stars of the lid did an album with vocals, but way more maudlin. Torrini rules though and is sorely underrated, her live album and fishermans woman are classics
