█ █
█ When is a piano EP not a piano EP? When the piano is recorded, then █
█ partially removed, leaving an ôempty shellö where the notes one █
█ shuddered. The recording operates as a sonic illusion, as the notes █
█ heard are not fully there. Some wander between the boundaries of tracks █
█ like sheep through busted fences. Others simply wait for company û the █
█ sweeps and crystalline tones that fall around the piano like dust from █
█ the arms of the abandoned windmill in which it was recorded. In one █
█ sense, the organic sounds are receding to expose the inorganic, but in █
█ another, the natural is receding to expose the supernatural, the █
█ physical to expose the spiritual. In the end, the EP sounds more like █
█ an electronic work, as hums and bright chords are accompanied by happy █
█ crackle and digital bells. The pops and bings turn out to have more of █
█ a presence than the identifiable elements, producing a sense of wonder. █
█ As the electric guitar makes an appearance on the title track, █
█ surrounded by the buzzing of pixies and sprites, itÆs as if heaven and █
█ earth were meeting in a sunny glen. Only four tracks dance on this █
█ postcard, but enough to allure: a seeming mirage that turns out to be an █
█ oasis. (Richard Allen) █
