Our Take

In his latest offering, CHRIS HERBERT dazzles us with Mezzotintin, a sonic journey through the whimsical landscape of British English. Known for his eclectic style and innovative soundscapes, Herbert delivers a refreshing blend of electronic beats and experimental melodies.

From the opening track, "Puddle Shuffle," to the hauntingly beautiful "Moonlit Marmalade," Herbert showcases his mastery of sound manipulation and imaginative storytelling. With each track, he immerses the listener in a world where the mundane becomes extraordinary and the ordinary becomes extraordinary.

The standout moment of the album comes in the form of "Teacup Tango," a dizzying whirlwind of glitchy beats and ethereal vocals that transports you to a dance floor straight out of Alice in Wonderland. It's a prime example of Herbert's ability to blend the avant-garde with the accessible, creating a sound that is both challenging and captivating.

While Mezzotintin may not be for the faint of heart, for those willing to take the plunge into Herbert's sonic landscape, the rewards are plentiful. With its playful melodies, intricate production, and off-kilter charm, this album is a testament to CHRIS HERBERT's continued evolution as a musical innovator. So grab your teacup, put on your dancing shoes, and let Mezzotintin take you on a wild ride through the enchanting world of British English.
