So when I say I had no idea what to expect when I slipped Circles into the player, I really mean that.

This EP is a condensed version of everything that I love about Denison Witmer’s music.

There are those times when, within the first 30 seconds of listening to a new CD, you know you’re listening to something truly special.

It’s uncanny how Unwed Sailor is able to convey emotion through a simple melody, a brush of a cymbal, a rolling bassline.

Music this simple, yet powerfully affecting, does not get made very often.

It might be just what you need at 10:30 on a Sunday night.

I’m sure you’ll find plenty of fascinating things wading through Jetenderpaul’s sonic collage.

If you come to this album looking for another quick new wave fix, you might be a little disappointed.

Did I mention Farquar Muckenfuss is a psychotic surf band from the depths of some hidden, secret laboratory?
