Exit Sounds review in Moors Magazine, The Netherlands



How cool is this??

"Josh Preston schrijft poëtische liedjes die hij ingetogen zingt, met fijnzinnige arrangementen. Muziek dus die niet meteen een verpletterende indruk maakt, maar meer muziek die je de tijd moet geven om binnen te komen. De zang en ook de arrangementen doen soms wat denken aan Tim Buckley, al was diens stem wat nasaler en daardoor irritanter, en waren diens arrangementen wat jazzier.

Preston is wat bescheidener, ingetogener, maar net zo fijnzinnig en geraffineerd. Met strijkers die heel voorzichtig pizzicato worden ingezet bijvoorbeeld, of met subtiele tweestemmige zang die soms wat aan de sixtiesband HP Lovecraft doet denken. En met name de arrangementen zitten heel fraai in elkaar, al hoor je dat pas goed als je de cd al een aantal keren gedraaid hebt.

Wat dat betreft geeft het hoesje een goed beeld van de muziek - je moet goed kijken voor je alles gezien hebt, er worden onverwachtecombinaties gemaakt, er zitten subtiele details in en het levert een smaakvol geheel op."

No idea what this says?? Us either. Thanks to Google Translate however, we've managed to get at least the basics...

"Josh Preston writes poetic songs he sings subdued, with sophisticated arrangements. Music so that not one overwhelming impression, but more music that should give you time to gain entry. The singing and the arrangements do sometimes think of Tim Buckley, although his voice was what nasaler and thereby annoying, and what were his jazzier arrangements.

Preston is more modest, ingetogener, but just as subtle and refined. With very careful pizzicato strings that are deployed, for example, or with subtle two-singing sometimes what to sixtiesband HP Lovecraft reminiscent. And in particular, the arrangements are very attractive in each other, all you hear that only good as the CD you already have commented several times.

In this respect gives the jacket a good picture of the music - you must look good for everything you've seen, there are onverwachtecombinaties, there are subtle details and the book provides a tasteful whole."
