Entertainment Reviews:
Spin - p.76
"BLUE SONGS' prevailing mood is deep indigo, not ultraviolet, yet that darkness heightens and complicates....Butler and crew offer gentle nocturnal sacrament."Uncut - p.89
4 stars out of 5 -- "BLUE SONGS journeys as great LPs should do, contrasting the David Byrne-like depth of 'Boy Blue' and the title track with the rave-era minimalism of 'My House'."The Wire - p.50
"[T]he tender songs posit BLUE SONGS as a lyrical, non-mimetic tribute to an era when sonic invention went hand-in-hand with dancefloor bliss."Mojo (Publisher) - p.108
3 stars out of 5 -- "With BLUE SONGS, Butler seeks to offer something different. It's apparent on the pulsing electro-acoustic ambience of 'Boy Blue,' an unabashed case of Eno worshipping."Tracks:
