AL_X is multi instrumentalist Alex Dunford, from the city of Liverpool England, hometown to many a famous artist. The music AL_X makes on his selftitled debut album can be categorized under Electronic music, influenced by famous electronc bands as we have like Sigur Ros, Depeche Mode and the like.
The music is a combined effort of great synth tones with nasty twists & turns as we also hear drum machines, music loops etc. All the music is composed, produced and all instrumentation played by AleX Dunford.
A bundle of nicely composed soundscapes is brought to the listener and I must say it is really really entertaining to listen to this music. It has an enlightning feel to it, and truly is able to cheer you up when you are having trouble enjoying yourself. In saying that though, the CD clocks in at 54 minutes which makes for quite a listen and I had difficulty listening the whole album.
After a while this whole electronic thing becomes a bit dull for my tastes. If you have a liking for the aforemention Depeche Mode and Sigor Ros you might try this and find it to your liking.
