Simply him and his piano, and sounds very like the work of Satie although one can hear in there familiar structures stolen and adapted to suit the general mood of the album.The overall result is incredibly relaxing. And by a completely different 'market/consumer' from his normal output.But it must be said that the music itself deserves so much respect. It is an album that rightfully has to be appreciated on its own merits from start to finish. Every track a beauty that reflects not simply his clear mastery of the piano but his doubtless virtuosity at it.Economically, however, it was a very brave move and an extremely risky one for him to take because the chances of his existing fan-base appreciating the music were very slim. A complete detour from his usual electro/pop sounds into the distant territory of neo-classical, piano and lounge/cabaret music: torch songs without the chanteuse, Satie without the strings.
