Apart from the spelling mistake, it does. The review below should answer your query too...Funny you should ask that question....fergus wrote:Does that describe the music accurately Dermot??????cybot wrote:The Caretaker - Persistant Repitition of Phrases
James Kirby's work as The Caretaker has always dealt with the suggestion of haunted memory and the obscuring of temporal motion, and this latest album makes that more explicit than ever, with titles that reference amnesia, Alzheimer's, past life regression and other such memory misfires and short circuits. Musically, this album might be compared to Philip Jeck's manipulated vinyl tracts, featuring similarly oceanic swells of crackle and dust, with faded pianos or big band sounds wafting wraith-like across the mix. After conjuring the sinister atmospherics of The Shining with his debut album Selected Memories From The Haunted Ballroom, The Caretaker has been chasing this idea of sound leaving its indelible mark on a space and time, so consequently these creepy, semi-dissolved musical passages sound no more tangible than shadows, and the album for the most part comes across as some sort of séance held via wax cylinder.

Re: Electronica - what are you listening to?
Yes Dermot, I see what you mean. The third one is not a bad image but does not appear to be in the same context as the other two I feel. Perhaps it reflects a different tone in the music?cybot wrote:They do Fergus, they do....it's just a pity they ruined it with the sleeve for volume three despite using the same artist.fergus wrote:Those Kirkby LP sleeves must look great in the hand!
