Lots of experimentation and tangents here. Once you think you have a track nailed down you are thrown for a loop and something weird and wacky happens. <\/p>\n<p>Iron Forest embraces a very digital sound at all points. The effects are cold and sterile but the music is lush and layered to create an effective recording. I enjoy the style here because the tracks are somewhat recognizable but not too much so that multiple listens are always a new experience.<\/p>\n<p>Definitely a weird mix of sounds and styles to form a unique journey. This one will appeal to fans who enjoy a fair amount of experimental beats and squiggly digital synth sounds. If you&#8217;re into that kind of thing it&#8217;s worth checking out.<\/p>\n<table width=\"35%\" border=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td width=\"40%\" align=\"right\">Composition:<\/td>\n<td width=\"60%\" ><img
