Songs from the Silver Box (CD)
Roger O'Donnell spent the majority of his career as keyboardist for The Cure (as well as for The Psychedelic Furs and Thompson Twins). Here, he creates a very different kind of electronic music; it's emotional and organic instead of clinical and aloof. Written and performed on a single instrument, the Moog Voyager, there's nothing programmed or mechanical about the compositions. Instead, they resonate with a sense of freedom and space, delicately textured and alive with innovation. An emotional, touching record.
