This week’s release comes from the netlabel Sutemos. It features experimental ambient electronic music. This remix album features several versions of some very good songs; the general sound is a calm soundscape blended with instrument samples whose appearance structures the songs. Well produced vocals with whispered voices are the label’s distinct feature. Read on to see which tracks I like most.—A technical novelty in this review is an integrated flash player for quick previewlisten of two tracks without the need to leave the page.—(Artwork by Leon Somov)

My favourite track is no. 4: Butterfly, remixed by Monoceros. It is a meditation, slowly building up its melancholic tunes. Electronic sounds and digital noise well harmonise with the breathy vocals. Best heard with earphones!

Another strange, but highly enjoyable track is no. 14, named Without You. Vivid acoustic guitars create the base for a Zero 7-like relaxing song. Trumpet and vocals alternately play the melody part.

Thanks you Silence, nice link. As I already wrote in my post about the film Home, it is possible to conveniently download youtube videos in HD quality (when this quality available, bien sûr).
