Tracklisting: 1. Softness Of Senses, 2. Smiles And Bridges, 3. Your Are In The Stars, 4. Drawing Pictures Of Girls, 5. Through Crimson Clouds, 6. Quiet Night, 7. So No Goodbyes, 8. The Eyes Sparkled And She Walked Away In a year that has seen electronic music slowly creeping its way back into the mainstream via the folktronic tinkering of Four Tet and the euphoric anthems of Ulrich Schnauss, Xela is set to be the next operator to caress the mood of the people with his delicate blend of homespun acoustic composition and a careful arrangement of electronic beats. 23 years old and already responsible for one of the finest records of last year (\"For Frosty Mornings...\" on the Neo Ouija label), John Twells returns to his instrument-based roots for an album that oozes warmth and fragility. These are, first and foremost, love songs in the most modern sense of the word, the futuristic means of execution never compromising the purified strum of the guitar that lies at the heart of each piece, even the voice (that rarest of instruments in this scene) making an appearance to stoke the fire. Away from the TV adverts, short films, and documentary soundtracks that are the unquestioned domain of new music these days, \"Tangled Wool\" is an album that transcends fad or fashion. An enduring collection of songs for late nights and reflective moments that has been constructed with the kind of feel for mood and composition that has rarely been displayed with such maverick skill. It\'s there to be discovered, slowly unraveled, just remember to handle with care. |

It's very different. Not the same quality either. As Neh says: "mediocre post-rock" |
