Crushed Stars is the project of one man, Todd Gautreau, and the refracted light is his electronic-tinged instrumental outing. Sounds swell and crinkle — the entire album floats by like a floating lullaby. The perfect soundtrack for some serious introspection.
Interesting all-instrumental detour released between their breakthrough Gossamer Days and their latest Convalescing in Braille. Incorporates glitch, downtempo to ambient. At times recalls Gautreau's other project Sonogram.
I can't speak highly enough of this album. From start to finish is it jam packed full of quaint beauty. I hate to sound ridiculous but it reminds me of a rainy Sunday morning. The temperature is perfect and the pitter-patter of the rain is calming in its tempo. I listen to this at work and it creates a nice mellow atmosphere at my desk. I would strongly suggest you pick this one up.
This whole Album is too!
