Leighton Craig, “11 Easy Pieces”, Room40, 2008
Residente en Brisbane, Australia, Leighton Craig ha estado activo desde 2005 y su discografía consiste en dos álbumes y algunas contribuciones en compilados.
“11 Easy Pieces” (que en realidad son 13) fueron grabadas originalmente entre febrero de 2003 a febrero de 2004 en una grabadora de casete de cuatro pistas.
Delicada, diminuta y suave guitarra, teclados Casio produciendo melodías infantiles, arpegios como espirales, percusión cóncava es la principal faceta de este álbum. Sin embargo, el casi inaudible y desolado paisaje sonoro de “Threnody” es una pieza distintiva de este disco.

Brisbane based artist Leighton Craig has been active since 2005 and his discography consists in two albums and some compilation appearances.
‘11 Easy Pieces’ (actually are 13 tracks) were originally recorded between February 2003 and February 2004 using a 4-track cassette recorder and an old analogue set-up.
Tiny and delicate gentle guitar, Casio keyboards producing childish melodies, swirling arpeggios and bowed percussion is the main facet of the album. However, the almost inaudible and desolated soundscape on “Threnody” is a distinctive piece on this CD.
