It’s been a little while since I last reviewed a release form the Russian netlabel Pulsations For You though I really should keep an eye out for their releases as so they’ve usually been of a high quality.

So it’s nice to see the latest release from them, Pianochocolate’s Morning Coffee 2008 continues that trend with an album of easy listening piano based electronica.

There is a mix of styles on the album although there is a definite ’sound’ across most of the tracks which may have something to do with whatever they are using to produce the tracks. A little more variation in the sound of the drum and bassline would probably improve this in my ears but then I do have an ear for slightly odd glitchy electronica.

As smooth easy listening electronica goes though, this rates pretty highly and I’d definitly have it on in the background now and again. Whilst I prefer the piano heavy tracks, I also loved the sound on “Old Movies” which immediately made me think of graphics demos or a slightly retro video game which it would no doubt make a good backing track for.

It’s made me want to check out the rest of the Pulsations For You releases which I’ve missed so I may review a few more.

Pianochocolate is one of creative music implementations by Russian musician Mikhail Korumenko. Piano is a classic instrument, a symbol of perfect taste, timeless and yet interesting, while the chocolate is an instrument to bring happiness and comfort. PianoChocolate’s style range is vast. The base for all the tracks is a tune which can be easily combined with almost any style like Drum & Bass, Breaks, Chillout, Easy Listening, Jungle, Trance. The latest album Morning Coffee suits fine as for a background and for a thoughtful listening. Aerial piano sound with a chocolatecoffee flavor album.
