This dangerously tuneful record displays the virtues of Danielle Stech-Homsy"s Rio En Medio: imaginative, compelling use of melodies, words and sounds. Danielle"s voice and baritone ukulele are always at the center, but they can be surrounded by a colorful swirl of electronics and recorded spoken phrases. As spontaneous and dreamy as it sounds, the same effect is achieved in live performance, and seems quite magical. (Listen: "Everyone Is Someone"s")
