A electronic cocktail of creative ideas that takes you on a journey through absorbing downtempo instrumental chill/dance tech music. 'Stripped' works very well on many levels, never over-playing ideas, yet brings a rewarding enjoyable listen into modern tech music delivering grooves, deepness, mystery and sublime moments to the ears where you can simply relax with or just groove too in a head nodding laid back sort of way! The majority of tracks transform with a development that evolve around a mixture of electronic genres, or from their bare basic components across ambient, techno, tech-house, Idm and even touches of euphoric which build upon the dubby/dub-techno foundation goodness used across several tracks. The minimal approach for most part of the album usually starts with each track doing what the album title says - 'Stripped'. As each tracks play along patterns, layers, effects start to emerge that also gradually wave through touches of minimal sweeps of melodies, delayed chords, manipulated loops, plus triggered effects. Introducing these elements bring a sense of progression to the minimalism while also delivering a smooth transaction shift that builds pace & momentum into a fuller complex evolved sound, though still manages to maintain a core stripped-back minimal feel they started with. The album manages to maintain a lush, warm, and even seductive feel within its music that comes with a thoughtful use of balance across its different and elements of genres used which are well implemented with no one genre being overly used, but do sound esp good when combined with its dub & dubby elements as used on several tracks. 'Stripped' with its different electronic tech genres and dub music captivates from beginning to end giving this a album a well deserved 8.5/10 for its style and immersive interesting listening.
