Tweet Review: Ernest Gonzales

Ernest Gonzales Been Meaning to Tell You (Friend of Friends, Feb. 2010)

"Dancing in the Snow" Anyone searching for a peaceful melody that still challenges and explores new spaces... check out Ernest Gonzales.

"Falling Asleep to the Glow of the Television" A master of blending electronic music and instrumental rock, this is Ernest at his best!

"Self Awakening" Sometimes the only way to be awaken from your funk or your ignorance is through yourself.

"We Can Live in the Forest" It's hard to believe a DJ can create an instrumental rock track as solid as this one.

"Opening a Lost Sacred Door" Where is that door and who holds the key?

"Psychedlic Bellhop" A near cheesy intro gives way a funk and deep disco track.

"Etchasketch Trees" There is a thickness to Ernest's beats that you don't hear too often. They meld perfectly with the gently played guitar.

"Emerald Nova" Piano drops swirl as a squelchy drum n' bass groove manages to sneak into the mix.

"Purple Heart" Ernest says this album is dedicated to his and it makes me think of quite times with mine.

"Untitled Love Song" Lights low or candle lit, the gentle scent of incense, stillness and peace.

"I'm Here You're There" This album closes so many gaps in music today and is a true work of art.

"When You Are Lost I Will Find You" The digital version of this album come with 16 (!) remixes from some of today's best.

"Upon the 49th Day" True chill out and meditate track.
