[...] I only just bought A Catch In the Voice this week — the new full-length from Jesse Somfay, a Canadian peddler of ultra melodic techno and ambient electronic work — and I really cannot get over how lovely these productions are. Again, I’m still digesting the album’s sixteen tracks and not-quite two hours, but I haven’t found a reason to complain about any of it. There are rippling Aphex Twin-like rhythms here, but the colorful washed-out stuff plays like Ulrich Schnauss. Rich, decaying synth textures fizz and gurgle over gentle beats for what seems like the more club-end of the album, while the morning music-half is gradual and dreamy. Breaking the “Commutes” tradition here and offering that I don’t have a particular song to address (maybe “Ex Astris, Ad Astra”); the whole album is really quite captivating.
