More wonderland these days, I'd say. Lineland's follow-up to 'Pavillion' is his first fully intentional album and an exciting listen. The accompanying press release with 'Logos For Love' puts me to the test. Lineland's first album is now recommended to me by my own bloody self. Only one minute into track number two, I nonetheless feel great relief for Lineland's move from linear patterns to a richer tapestry.

A warm blanket of sound - a cliché but a true description, is crafted from a multitude of layers and crispy, digital effects. Yet electro-acoustics puritans should not despair as the structures still however veer towards distorted glitchy dance patterns. Too rough around the edges to count as lounge music, 'Logos For Love' is tantalizing relaxation though.

'A Widow and a Prince' adds to his, known as classy, compositions with a merciless beat. Malcolm Felder also known as Lineland fluently puts together a melody line in progress with evolving repeats. One step ahead of the game, Lineland reaches euphoria pretty soon. I suppose this will see the light as an individual release one day with lots of remixes. Next, 'Logos For Love' chooses to crash course, yet surfaces on the lovely little bouncy 'Am-Track' then continues in elaborated and gentle manner. Simple and ever so impressive.
