Tangled Wool, by Xela (LP on Neo Ouija)

What you say No-one has reviewed Tangled Wool by Xela yet. Give us your opinion on Tangled Wool by Xela. What we say This record left our Brian feeling happy. Oh we've just got our box of fat electronica from some shady hoods in Manchester village so here goes....A new album from Xela, responsible for that lovely 'Frosty Mornings..' opus of last year. And It's doing the trick of utterly relieving me of this horrendous hangover incurred last night. Called  'Tangled Wool', this is more gorgeous heartwarming stuff. Starting with a lush piano led opener, delving into picked acoustic beauty and all the while encompassing gentle electronics in the manner of a folksey Arovane, this is a sweet as a nut album of pastoral loveliness. Just essential I'd say! LP/CD

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
