OP8 Slush

"Stark and straightforward as two lanes of desert blacktop....it's the appearance of Germano that makes this dusty landscape of bleached bones and prickly cacti shimmer like an oasis....a cool, refreshing treat..."
"...SLUSH, which I'll gladly proclaim Troubled Listening Album Of The Year, is about seductively mutable half-states in which freezing and melting...look much the same....It's a record so pristinely recorded you can hear every fractional nuance..."
"...the ambient drifts and dribbles of the minimalist tunes are often oddly engaging....a bit of acoustic guitar, restrained drums, and just enough sonic garnish to keep things interesting....captures the alternately disorienting and comforting feeling of being half-asleep in a hammock."
