Ian O'Brien - Gigantic Days - 2x12" - Peacefrog - pf083 Since he's producing Ian O'Brien pretty fast build up an own sound, through his releases on Ferox and 4th Wave. Gigantic Days is his second full length after Desert Scores, and again he takes it jazzy, but as less others still with a very futuristic sound. And that's much to less said. He does it in a perfect way in between, making it easily one of the better albums this year. Somewhat reminding to Planetary Folklore by As One, but not that diverse. Using smooth jazzy rhythms together with fine smooth warm strings and other sounds. Unique, and highly recommended!
