    The violinist crafts sparkling avant-pop that simultaneously draws from classical, '70s prog, and Top 40 radio. [Jun/Jul 2014, p.95]

    While Lighght has its highlights, there is simply too much questionable fluff surrounding the good ideas.

    Ishibashi follows suit with the meaty "Carry on Phenomenon," a lyrically impenetrable, impossibly catchy blast of ELO worship that, like all of the songs on the tightly packed rainbow canon that is Lighght, skillfully applies a dizzying array of bells and whistles to what is essentially a simple, relatable, and reliable pop melody.
