Waiting to be haunted - love it.

Goose Girl - takes a little getting into the 'bahh,bahh,bahh' bit but once through that pretty good. Couple of points where the vocals don't quite hold together

The biggest problem for electronica artists is that once you get a groove, you overdo it, when subtle variety is very easy.

The second biggest is to provide the spacial/directional dynamics in a recording that real acoustic spaces and real instruments can offer, which requires imagination. Variety is the shortcoming here.

I Don't like the wheezing Betty Boop vocal, she uses her voice much more interestingly in "Fugitive".

Maybe, making an album now is different in the age of Myspace, when it was a huge financial commitment/risk more care went into the choice and development of the material.

I like the spooky atmosphere, even if I'm not big on listening to drums programmed on a computer.
