Maritime might be a light, almost frothy album, but that's exactly where its power lies.
-
An assortment of evocative instrumental journeys that warm the cockles.
-
Think Giorgio Moroder, The Art of Noise and Michael Nyman with - if you like your reference points with less padded shoulders - a touch of New Order and Boards of Canada.
-
A joyous, positively sun drenched blend of organic instruments and electronic twiddlings.

UncutDemonstrates... pastoral grace, sweetness and warmth. [Aug 2005, p.106]
-
The WireThis music's shoreline is made up of instrumental delicacy and subtle arrangements, which burble, froth and foam washing over the listener with an insistent but gentle force. [#257, p.61]
-
Starting at the midpoint, "Twosley," Maritime starts to drag.

BrantNov 10, 2005I think most of the critics are being a little snobby about this one. It is a Top 10 of 2005 that's going under the radar. Get yourself a copy.
