Milieu - Our Blue Rainbow

Early mornings, foggy windows, cold bus seats wet with dew...the hum of the engine droning on as you slowly pass out, sinking down in your seat. These twelve songs take you there, around the block, and back home again. Milieu's first non-ambient full-length since U-Cover's Night Currents in January, and full of his trademark melodies, warm analog production, nostalgic vibes and slow-motion breaks-n-basslines. A happy-sad album for the Fall season, exquisitely packaged by David Tagg with an extra-special narrative by vintage author Mike Dolan. Limited to 200 hand-assembled copies, the first 75 bought directly from EED come with a free copy of the 1983 EP by Coppice Halifax.

All CDs will ship on 10.05.06 or sooner.

Brian?

Hint...if the bonus tracks on OBR equal the year I was born, and the bonus disc is named after that year, then the hidden tracks on the bonus disc must specifically reference something within that year, correct?

yes Brian but what?

i am no good at working out riddles like this, even if they are simple

HELP!
