Title: A New and Impressive Style
Product review: Although the predominant choice is for traditional (i.e. non-synthesized) instruments, the album still maintains an overall techno feel. Most songs contain a number of unexpected interruptions, syncopated drum patterns and lumbering gypsy beats that somehow manage to keep it all together. Think of Aphex Twin's "I Care Because You Do" played in a chamber music setting. Tobin manages to combine a very diverse set of influences such as rock, jazz, techo and even classical into a new category unto itself, which means this is very original stuff. Upon first listening it's good and then it grows on you from there. The excellent production and mix deserve recognition here as well.
