The Canadian musician Christopher Bissonnette was so committed to his third album that he didn't rely on prefabricated sounds, but created his own synths, mainly analog ones, for it. Here, sounds were not only produced, but above all researched, which makes "Essays In Idleness" sound like vintage and seventies (à la Eno) on the one hand, but on the other hand opens up completely new dimensions for the ambient. "Music For Spaceports"?
