JVOX is back at tonatom and strikes again with his very own distinctive style. just like on his first release his music is on the one hand dominated by very straight electronic arrangements with crystal clear outlines and not only a little twist towards rhythmic structures but actually a rather danceable foundation. but on the other hand there are vast areas of soundeffects and melodies which can be found e.g. in the opener grey alert. and this track is exactly *not* the usual ambient mishmash this combination often leads to.

and so we are moving together with JVOX between stylized computer sounds, crispy beats and soundpaintings without mere repetition or standing still but reinventing himself and his style over and over again. and just en-passant JVOX delivers an ultra-feathery click'n'brzzt ambient hymn called alba which you will find crawling into your ear.
