Broken

I just found a very nice review of my record on the Grooves Mag site:

These songs are all about the comfort of smothering: The thickly layered sounds echo the familiarity of warm blankets, impenetrable snowfall, a mother's embrace. The whole affair seems like a gushy proposition, but Schoster approaches the challenge with consistency and style, backing up melodic content with chops in beat programming and signal processing. The sheer variety of sound sources used in the album's nine cryptically named tracks add up to a sonic scrapbook of sorts, cataloging conversations with friends, eerie voicemail messages, and interviews with fellow composers, adding necessary inhabitants to an otherwise depopulated landscape of pure tones and micro-beats. - John H.
