Release Notes:

A stunner of a set from one of the few groups of their generation who seem to
grow and grow more with each new record! Break Reform first caught hit a few
years ago, in the big rush of excellent work coming from London at the start of
the 21st Century. With this great little record, they've clearly emerged as a
force of their own. They are a group that's got a depth and sense of soul that
will take them way beyond any simple and easy references to their
contemporaries! The lovely Nana Vorperian sings these beautiful lead vocals on
the set -- drifting, moody, and spacey -- but never without focus, and always
with a lightly tripping style that perfectly matches the album's deeply soulful
rhythms by Simon Skolfield and JJ Webster. There's a laidback, lowdown quality
to the set that's wonderfully relaxed and very organic -- but it also never
falls into any cliches of downtempo, or the kind of easy tricks that always make
us shy away from that genre. Great stuff throughout, and a great burst of
contemporary soul.
