Jack Anderton - The Moment

This is possibly my favourite release of the year so far, comes particularly recommended for fans of FSOL/The Orb/similar sample-based ambient stuff, and I've heard BoC comparisons to the second half of the album.

"Expanding on the his earlier ambient, atmospheric electronic music, The Moment

starts in a calm unprepossessing manner with 3 ambient tracks before settling into

a pattern of lightly toned ambient electronic music with a slightly poppy theme. One

element of the album is the extended use of untampered field recordings which

complement the ambience greatly. The album does change in tone and genre from

beginning to end but is held together via the samples and melodies that lend the

record an airy tone, occasionally wandering into sadder, more wistful ambience.

Jack's finest work to date can be found on The Moment, and the record comes

highly recommended, particularly to fans of The Orb and The Future Sound of London."
