Jasper TX, In a Cool Monsoon (CD)

I think In a Cool Monsoon might be the third Jasper TX, not counting collaborations with Machinefabriek and anything else I'm forgetting. It's a really diverse CD, with everything from digital distortion to baroque progressions, and they're generally well-executed. The diversity makes it feel a bit unfocused to me. A lot of it held my interest, but I remember liking A Darkness more (updates when I listen to that one). It's mastered very loud and modern (well, modern for 2006)—I'd have preferred a bit more dynamics.
