I like the album so far, it reminds me of things like Encre
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsA8xuoiAHw) and Telefon Tel Aviv
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCspF-lz24A) with a bit of DJ Shadow and
The Album Leaf (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jYr2fDgn64). Nice piece
of work!

One question though, how is your music licensed?

Best,

Jeremy
