| A nice ambient electronica release. Reminscent of Nitrada or even |
| Four Tet. Go buy it if you like it, it's only 9$ incl. shipping on |
| the artists' website (http://www.evolvesingularity.org). |

| Review from http://www.wetworksezine.com |
| |
| Extropy is the project of Jeremiah Savage and Dave Andrus. On |
| "Lethe" the duo manipulate many different sounds, from electric and |
| acoustic guitars, fractured beat patterns, sparse atmospheric |
| vocals, emotional ambient synths and melodic clicks'n'cuts that |
| make me think of the cold calculated moments of Haujobb/Architect |
| or the emotional anguish of Nine Inch Nails. |
| |
| Tracks like "Cinderel" (which remind me a lot of the new Bitcrush |
| release, actually) and "Lacuna" left me in awe. "Anhydrous" floats |
| through many different shades, from a matrix-like modem crash to |
| the slight vocoder that is placed on the voice. The following track |
| ">" mysteriously tugs at the heartstrings, as beautiful processed |
| piano infuses with somber vocals and acoustic guitars. ">" is the |
| type of song that gives you goose bumps the first time you listen |
| to it.s |
| |
| This is easily one of the best albums I've heard in months. Why |
| this band hasn't gained more recognition is beyond me. I definitely |
| recommend "Lethe" to fans of Ambient Electronica. It's nice to see |
| an artist that can mix electronic music with elements outside of |
| the genre (i.e. acoustic guitars, real drums, etc..) to create |
| something beautiful, original and unique. Just brilliant! |
