Dosh Wolves And Wishes anticon. May 5, 2008
Ok so I am clearly not familiar enough with Dosh to comment objectively on this album. It's obvious that the dude is not scared of experimentation and using completely different styles and sounds in one album. Which is great (if you're into that kind of thing) and exactly what you would find in Wolves & Wishes. For me, I felt a little unattached to the record and sadly the pretty clingy clanky sounds of chimes, rhythmic beats, melodic piano (in parts) and great strings unfortunately were not enough for me this time. (Wow! When I write that I feel like I should have loved this record!) Kind of eerie in parts and almost 8-bit sounds in other ones... weird. The guy is talented, no doubt. I kind of felt like it was a bit of a contradiction, just like this review. - Morning LemonHighlights / WolvesLabels: 2008
