This week Strings Of Consciousness is "accelerated"...
Getting close to celebrate their 100th issue the American magazine XLR8R is certainly one of the world's leading publication dealing with Electronic Cultures. 
Thus we are honoured that they selected one of our  songs as their favourite for the week, and offer it in their INCITE Online series... You can download the free mp3 from there :

Besides XLR8R wrote :

"Strings of Consciousness sounds something like a cross between a very competent experimental electronic artists and a well-done movie soundtrack. The nine-man musical collective manages to remain in synch through the numerous pianos, guitars, basses, bleeps and clicks that appear throughout their tracks, and create a rhythm together that is haunting, unpredictable, and curiously feel good at the same time."
