Tara Jane O'Neil's fifth album and first for K Records contains an elegant attention to detail in the mix that will please all those in need of great headphone jams, electronic minimalist drone magic, and heroic adventure. But A Ways Away is driven by the singer and the songs. Her voice is out front and the vocals are gorgeously sung. Contributors include Jana Hunter, Mira, Osa Atoe (New Bloods), Geoff Soule (Fuck), and Jean Cook and Daniel Littleton (Ida).
