Album Description

Seventeen tracks that blend seamlessly into one another, making them perfect for headphone listening or as background music. At times glitch-based minimalism, but also captures the drama of post rock. An ambient noise classic!

Many potential buyers of this album might be familiar with contemporary composition. Those in that category should purchase immediately without reserve. For the many more who might be hesitant but curious, you should give this a listen. Like the Brockett Hudson, Hecker captures the feeling of 21st century life through stripped down but powerful instrumentation thoughtfully drawn from a strong minimalist framework. It may sound bizarre, but it is somehow beautiful. As a convert from the latter category, I can say with confidence that you will not be disappointed.

Much to the chagrin of the reviewer below me, I'm going to refer to Tim Hecker's ambient leanings (he has several house albums out under the name "Jetone") as "ambient glitch." Though I feel genre classifications are typically restrictive and under-descriptive (or even misleading in their descriptions), Haunt Me, Haunt Me, Do It clearly and successfully fuses droning melody and cathedral-like ambience with elements of electronic glitch, creating a hybrid quite unlike either ambient or glitch.

Tim Hecker soothes the listener through choice, dark tonal pallettes, but jars him or her through seemingly random interjections of electronic interferece -- Certain passages lend themselves more to one or the other. The result is heightened tension through the latter, but a more welcoming sense of harmony through contrast in the former. That Tim Hecker is a graduate student in psychoacoustics is very apparent, and lends itself to his unique style of ambient. Highly recommended.

Be sure to check out Radio Amor, a much brighter offering, as well as his new record, Mirages, which presents much more white noise in place of droning than his other discs.

so much of this so called & mis-categorised "glitch" (& i shudder as i write the word..) music is simply not very good at all..but this is wonderful..emotive, late night electronics to soften the hardest heart ..think Fennesz at his deepest & saddest, some of Jim O'Rourke's stuff..the perfect understated melody of Night Flight to Your Heart is worth the price of admission alone.
