beautiful plate full of auditions

In This New Century is a beautiful, light-footed drive that holds some small musical treasures and the listener fußwippend can sweeten the day. In rapid succession - to a large extent, the songs take less than two minutes - show rewinds Dan Reeder his small ideas and musical quirks from, and if you're not careful, you have forgotten the one or the other song listen.

This is what makes it for me but also a little difficult to get involved with the whole plate: The songs seem sometimes a bit unfinished; hardly an idea was established in the form of a textual or instrumental element and repeated once, the song is already over, and the listener gets the next taste of a song from the back no longer than an audition. Sometime blurred with me it all comes together, I forgot what songs I have heard in detail, and it only remains a somewhat arbitrary overall impression of the brand "really nice" about.

In short, this album has really good and original approaches, from these would but just a little bit more to be done. Nevertheless: Thumbs up more!
