Magnétophone - I Guess Sometimes I Need To Be Reminded Of How Much You Love Me

I've resigned myself to the reality that I'm unlikely to make it all the way through this album, at least not now, when the bulk of my playlist is basically sweet sad songs - Aimee, Lucinda, Kathleen Edwards, and so on. Indeed, enjoying this kind of fractured ambient/idm stuff would probably be a stretch for me at the best of times, but I can sort of see why 4ad put it out - there are some broody-pretty washes of synthy melodies happening, and I can actually imagine myself liking this quite a lot if I were to listen to it in a more receptive mood. For the time being, though, am putting it to one side.
