Rich Bennett “Music For Underwater Supermarkets” – Jezebel Music
Excerpt: “The album retains many of the softer sensibilities that his other outfit [Monocle] displays, but keeps them on an even more cerebral level, free of vocals and full of jazzy, nuanced explorations… The album contains no filler – each track, no matter its length, supports its weight in the precious sequencing that defines a large part of this record… a fuzzy trip through the cartoon movie soundtrack of Bennett’s psyche. Perhaps he was left waiting a little too long in his mother’s shopping cart, listening to MIDI versions of Stereolab at the market. Gazing upon an antiquated aquarium, he began to formulate his first thoughts of traversing the sonic boundaries of an Underwater Supermarket in his mind.”
