Almost Tomorrow is the third full length collaboration album from Section 27 Netlabel founders Tam Ferrans and Andrew Paterson, under their Nonima & theAudiologist guise. This time around the sound is more melodic, and has a definite feeling of a complete and more mature sound than heard on the previous LP's "Dystopian Battle Hymns" and "Ceremony After Amputation". If you are familiar with their individual projects you may even be in for a slight surprise, as the tracks are not as beat driven like before, but are more atmospheric and sound, well... "bigger". In its 75 minutes, Almost Tomorrow takes you on a trip from the digital rain-soaked cavernous scraping in "Thoughtograph", the ethereal beat jittering of "The Colour of Rain", intercepted transmissions from unknown places in "Com-Intercept", "Ganzfeld"s huge yet strangely insect-like beats until everything you knew comes crashing around you in "Almost Tomorrow". Burning pianos, glitched out soundscapes and intricately programmed beatplay, this may well be their best work to date. Consider it the soundtrack to a rainy overcast day, but with just that glimmer of sunshine peeking from the clouds. "Almost Tomorrow" wears its heart on its sleeve.
Still can't believe my ears hearing your voice, Still can't believe my eyes seeing you, Still can't believe the memory of tonight, Am I home or did I fall asleep with your last song?
Querida Yasmin, Tus canciones nuevas son demasiado bellas. Me encanta Mi Korazon! Increible tu voz en esta. No veo la hora de conseguir el album. Muchos saludos y que vuelves pronto a Nueva Zelanda. Cuidate bonita! Steph
Yasmin - I am so happy that you are coming to New York. For these past few years since I found your music on Myspace I have waited to hear you perform in the USA.
As always you continue to bless us with your God given gift (your voice) May you always find happiness, peace and success
