*lol* http://www.pelicanneck.com/Pages/twnewreleases.html ELECTRONICA / IDM / AMBIENT / ELECTRO / ELECTROPOP/ MENTALIST .(AKA BEN HATCHELT) : Everything's Exactly How You Left It - Spark - CD £5.99 Following their first compilation release some months ago, Spain’s Spa.RK label return with their first artist full-length. .(‘dot’) is the moniker of young British artist Ben Hatchelt. Across the 7 tracks here he manages to create a gliding, atmospheric skip through ambient terrain – with a strong emphasis on spacious harmonies and deep, textured motifs. Three tracks in, ‘Can’t Take You’ introduces percussion to proceedings, complete with sombre and restrained strings, a measured tapped-in beat that brings to mind one of Gescom’s many versions of Keynell. The atmosphere throughout leans towards the denser side of ambient, but the execution is strikingly original and often orchestral. Deep. --- "info @ spa.rk" <info@sparkreleases.com> wrote: > Hola
