thanks for delivery confirmation!

Edgeland is slowly going through the postal system! Should arrive in a mail box
if you are a member of “the faithful few”, if everything goes ok!


Please confirm arrival of CD so I can calculate the possible need for “a second try” !

Conny - I love the album! It's my favorite of yours so far, most definitely. I think I respond to the more thoughtful/ambient approach. It's in the car, so I get a chance to listen to parts of it all the time -- it's been sort of the soundtrack to the last couple weeks.

I'm going to try to give you a more track-by-track comment in a bit, maybe next week. I really like the direction though.

Feedback is on my to-do list, but this last week or two has been insanely busy with the jug band and preparing for a D&D game with the children. Will prioritise this next week as I've really enjoyed the album. (Suddenly realises I could have been listening to it last night while working instead of Discreet Music - doh!)

I'm not sure what you're surprised about, but you can see details of the Jug Band in the thread in this section; as for the D&D, I've been playing the game since I was at school (1979) on and off; am currently running a reasonably light (low peril) campaign for my children (13 & 10), their cousin (15), and my wife (4n). They get quite enthusiastic about playing and it's hard to keep up with writing stuff.

Just two very interesting and different things you were doing! It's not every day you hear people talk about the jug band they're putting together. I'll check out the link.

I have really enjoyed listening to the album. Was it planned as 'segments of a whole'? Only it seems to flow very naturally from one piece into the next - indeed listening without paying attention to the track numbers (as one must when driving) there is a feeling of wholeness that is greater than the parts. The vocal samples are worked in well and the overall sound of the record is terrific - warm and encompassing, yet with dark and foreboding themes.

Thanks Simon! Much appreciated.
Guess that all my albums since Treibholz been planned as 'segments of a whole'
I like to plan and play with the idea of an album as a whole, where every part has its place for a reason.
It's my Roger Waters complex :oops:
(not sure complex is the right word, dont find the right one, but you know, you have a hung up on something or so)
Glad you like the sound of the record, I finally is getting closer to my ambition for the perfect sound.
