The font that's on the artwork? Looks perfectly good to me!

The sneak preview you sent me a while back has gotten lots of playing from me. Perfect summertime music, and Ancord Point is still one of the best tracks I've heard all year.

To be honest I am known to be a bit of a font nerd. I'm rather particular.

Thanks alot for your comments guys! Makes me feel good. The font is a bit cheesy but I think that's one of the reasons I like it.

Work on your beat programming skillz.
Not bad, but nothing really new or exciting either.

Hmm, what bothers you about the beats? Some of them are intentionally very minimal, like the one on omura, but on We Were Warm the patterns and rythyms are considerably complex. I think im pretty good at making a deep groove.

The beats rock, as does the hypnotic melody on 2802.

Very nice and very atmospheric. I forgot I was listening to it for a while.

I really love this, great work. I took this along with me on a summer day wandering through some fields and woods today. I especially like We Were Warm and Ancord Point.

I dunno, I just didn't think the beat programming in this release was the best I've ever heard.
I would have stuck with just ambient if I were you.
I mean, you do it the best. Putting beats in it is like putting a fox among the chickens.
A polite and well mannered fox that would probably ask the chickens if he could eat them, but still a fox.

And before you all call me haters and evil and stuff, I LIKE IT.
Can't I just make comments on what I think needs improving? :wink:

This ep shows a great deal of discretion and restraint on your part. I think the minimalism is this ep's greatest strength (aside from being possessed of great, solid tunes!). Thanks for sharing!
