Cricklewood may be remembered ten years from now, but I think his Beneath
the Valley of the Modulars is the true classic-to-become. I'd rate it as
highly as Polygon Window or Music has the Right to Children.
As far as the gear he likes to show off is concerned, Every time I've seen
his live set, he's had a different set-up, and there were no signs of
showing off involved. I don't even think he has that much gear, I think it's
stuff he's owned over the years; which would make sense, considering the
variety of his output.
I don't think he records and relaeses randomly, from an old interview I
read, he uses about one percent of what he records.
The genuine originality of Kristian's music should keep him in record
collections for years to come.
