Album Description
As an award-winning producer and member of the hip-hop production team The Prunes, Peder has produced, remixed, and released artists such as the Beastie Boys, DJ Krush, The Roots, and DJ Vadim. This record is slow, dark, cinematic, and soulful, and it demands your attention. Party music for ghosts, Twin Peaks tunes for cold winter nights, and disturbingly eerie and creaky sounds for your iPod. Partly instrumental with vocal contributions from Bay Area soul man Nino Moschella, NY-based gospel singer Dean Bowman, and Danish singers Ane Trolle and Joy Morgan. For fans of Joanna Newsom, Coco Rosie, Tom Waits, Amon Tobin, Susanna & The Magical Orchestra, Beach House.

 Dark October 20, 2008
Dean Bowman's vocal delivery (unfortunately only one one track) atop Peder's dark production comes across as a fictitious marriage between Tom Waits and the Cinematic Orch (only more sombre) for today's beat generation. That said, the sound is much more than that referenced before. Lush cellos, haunting themes and a definite David Lynch/ian soundscpaes make this album a great soundtrack to an unreleased noir. However, unlike the Cinematic Orch. there is not much a live interplay amongst the "players".
 Incredible June 12, 2007
Peder's sound struck me as experimental as times, but it was well worth the listen. Many of the tracks have a great moody feel, making them excellent to play when just relaxing. I especially enjoyed "White Lilies" and "The Sour." They had a sort of "retro with a modern twist" feel.
Moving music a la Tom Waits/Nina Simone May 18, 2007

Never heard of Peder before, but am blown away by how beautiful this cd is.
I thoroughly recommend you take your time and get lost in this very cinematic album. I know lots of people get compared to Tom Waits - but there's a similar lo-fi charm and eerie-ness on this CD. Should also appeal to fans of folks like Cinematic Orchestra, Feist, Cocoe Rosie, Radio Citizen, Joanna Newsom etc - a little different, definitely eccentric and not going be heard on Top 40 radio, but well worth a listen.
