Amid a slowly oscillating windswell and growing electronic musical emergence, Wim Away features the chipper banter between a man and woman which sems to be derived from some 1940's romantic comedy. Cute and interesting, but not necessarily something one would want to listen to repeatedly. Admittedly pretentious of title, The Fractured Caverns Of The Snow Wolf lead the listener through various phases, accompanied by faint murmers, ghostly piano, hazy electronics and eventually, jammin' drumbeats.
Beats stir a small synth cyclone in a pretty, though quite percussive, passage.
More comedy film samples are found In The Sea Of Japan , but basically only in the intro. The rest of the track features dense synth-organ waves, a monsoon wind and clattery ryhtmic effects. Glassy and electric at the same time, mechanical bells seem to bleep in a tinkling rainfall, and that pulsing storm center resumes. This coffee made me think how good whiskey would taste. I'm declaring this to be a 7.9 release, with the admission that I don't mind having my funny bone tickled a little.
