A wide variety of instrumentation is used to conjure a wide variety of moods – ‘There’ll Always Be Strangeness’ is a James Bond theme in waiting, ‘Wounded Knee’ is a sombre and respectful reflection on the fateful historical massacre, ‘Jazzster’ fades in and out on a jaunty, trumpet-led late summer evening stroll, ‘The Other Song’ ushers in voices but wordlessly, as instruments
The musical DNA collects elements the evocative, dramatic atmospheres of John Barry, the wistful melancholia of Penguin Café Orchestra and a whole whimsical strain of English urban folk
