gentle, lush, truly beautiful... just some of the words that could be used to describe this delicious and, of course, ultra-limited release on maps and diagrams' cactus island label. the double team of ben edwards (aka benge) and paul merritt (expanding) is a potent combination as anyone who has heard their delightful album on expanding will attest. this has four tracks of shimmering, summery sounding electronics with a low-key subtlety that's incredibly appealing and beautifully produced. simply, it's a must-have and essential piece that continues the series with a great deal of style. highly, highly recommended. smallfish records
