"The hunt" takes it electronic with a zappy bang, pure 16bit game soundtracks, brought upto date, but still holding the essence of quality within. Cloudy zaps and bamboo smacking pips fly through this one, accompanied by eerie bellows that attempt to but dont succeed in taking over the smiling tempo, that is in control. Excellent introduction to Thin Films. "Dial M for Eskimo" stuter drums its thought processes across to you via a small tiny cable that is held in the air by a couple of droids, who insist on shaking it all about, creating a shaky drumbeat pattern, rammed with heartfelt playfulness. Its the big shiny eyes of a kitten looking up at you, and you arent sure if its going to pounce or not. Cool stuff.

"The awakening" unveils a cold frosty landscape and captures the calls and deep whistles of the wind that flows throughout like a military search force covering every square centimetre. The calmness doesnt last for long, as a heavy mertallic scratching beat develops out of nowhere, and casts a powerful wave throughout the track. Full atmospherics to the maximum, monumental stuff.
String Theory pay a quick visit with a remix of "Lure of Time", ejecting an automated, processed and glitched upload style into the party. Simple beeps synthesized with smashing synth hits create a snow laden, glitch industrial track, with refined melodies, that isnt that heavy for the electronic heads out there, whilst "Endless days" introduces you to the cave of audio light, a heavy juttering light show, that has to be heard to be beleived. Bassy waves, and composed calmness, cut into, with reverberating creamy goodness. Play this one LOUD.

"Morning Valley" is the after effect of clouds smashing into each other, causing gaps in the thick white water sponges to occur and let subtle beams of uv rich sunlight through. Highly orchestral and reminding me of the Shenmue soundtrack, this is adventure through and through. Impressive stuff.

"Eskimo" is what I would class as a 'soundscape' release. It instantly causes you to picture huge never ending horizons, waves of sound with life popping up from every crevis available. Hugely enveloping and transfixing music, rammed full of meticously programmed sound. Top stuff Dan.
