American musician Steve Hauschildt deals in ambient electronica, and his latest album Where All Is Fled, is full of this sort of thing. The washes of keyboards that introduce Eyelids Gently Dreaming set the tone – sumptuous, gliding pieces of music, not too far off the droning, ambient pieces that Stars of the Lid specialise in. The darkly twinkling Arpeggiare could be Portishead put through an electronic phaser (everyone should have one).

So we get languid Eno-like synth pieces (Anaesthesia, Edgewater Prelude, the title track Where All is Fled), shades of Sakamoto (In Spite of Time’s Disguise), and some pieces made up mainly of ambient sounds (Aequus, Lifelike). Those who enjoyed the more chilled-out side of Leftfield will find much to interest them here, especially the likes of Caduceus. This sort of music is designed to create a mood, or provoke a response and the mood conjured up here is bright, expansive and relaxed. - Review by Killian Laher
