a quick review of a 5 track promo for kirsty hawkshaw (ex opus3 and collaborator with global communications) 1,dis-affected 2,chapter8 3,leafy lane 4,for you 5,orange track 1,a nice mid tempo hip hop beat,nice orchestral violin type stuff and vocal over the top,kindof andgry lyrics,but really nicely sung..with a highly eq'd effect. track2,another nice soft vocal over a classical type piano melody,strings and violins,kind of etheral i suppose,"some things are better left unsaid,some book left unread" kind of lyrics...nice track3,another mid temp beat, reminds me of some sade tracks,has hints of global comm ambience. track4,another nice drum pattern,nice vocals etc...nice :) track5..previously on a compilation"sallys photographic memory" i think,a really nice ambienty/global comm type track with really nice vocals..very nice .... all in all,a good promo ,..so the album should be good too, a nice antidote to pure electronic idm albums wayne

I've been playing the shit out of the 12" with the Matrix remix of 'Leafy Lane'. It's almost mind numbingly pretty but also has some mad 'optical' style bass going on that just makes me keep on going back to it! As for the B-side, there's the original '8 bit' mix, another smooth trip hop track sans vocals called 'Underwater Lady' and the 'Joshua Smooth Walk Mix' of Leafy Lane. Credits read: Original production by Mark Pritchard Additional production and remix on track A1 by Matrix Additional production and remix on track B3 by Joshua aka 'Circulation' Tracks A1, B1 & B3 written by Kirsty Hawkshaw/Mark Prichard/John Sebastian Track B2 ('Underwater Lady') written by Kirsty Hawkshaw Leafy Lane contains elements from 'Didn't Want to Have to do it' performed by Rotary Connection.
