Album Review: Ashley Davies - Pulse Transit

StarStarStarHalf Star

"Davies has managed to take something we know and love and make it new again."

Pulse Transit is exactly that; this album has the beat, with its rhythmic reoccurrence of strokes, and the movement, with its feeling of shifting through time.

Ashley Davies wanted to create an album that has two parallel trajectories travelling along two lines of time and that's what he has done. Each track has one sound that feels fixed, while the other is shifts and unfurls along that fixed line. His unique idea to bring these two forms together has worked magically to make a new synth/electronic mix.
