Editorial Reviews

Album Description
2007 release from Mira Calix, AKA South African Chantal Passamonte, her third full length. This album combines Electronica with field recordings of natural sounds occurring in the forests of Suffolk. Eyes Set Against The Sun also utilizes violin and a children's choir which are set against Electronic beats and sounds to create a superb coupling of nature and technology which comes together to create a living, breathing work which is both beautiful and challenging. 11 tracks. Warp.

Customer Reviews

an adventure worth taking...5
this is def not for everyone, but if you've liked mira's eariler stuff, this is essential;
brilliant in places, ambitious. melodic, noisy. great contrasts betweent the organic and the electronic
(boys choir, orchestra, piano, samples).

i found her last cd ("3 commissions") more interesting than listenable. this cd is BOTH interesting and listenable.

highly recommended!
