Never boring like so much of the Fripp-Eno loop sequences here is a cycle of infinitely moving parts, an album where every track is interesting to hear without resorting to any electronic trickery which must be really tempting at times. Overall a graceful album of rare beauty.

– Jim Aikin, Contemporary Keyboard

For us poor little Frenchmen, used to consuming United States’ pop and rock under all its forms (see the display window of your usual record shop), it’s incredible to realize that over there in America, lost in the great plains of the New World there exists a slightly whimsical musician who derives a crazy pleasure in creating his very beautiful pieces, all alone surrounded by his keyboards. More than the usual devices of the ordinary French or German glider, Leimer uses prepared tapes, magnetic loops and a piano which he has taken the care to treat beforehand, as he says, in the Eno manner. K. Leimer knows what he wants, he works in a very precise area within the confines of ambient music and so-called “event” music. He adapts his instruments to this context and, by techniques, perfects entirely beautiful mini-symphonies. Several adjectives come to mind to describe his most beautiful recordings: Field Characteristics, The Random in Nature, or Four pages from an Unfinished Novel, ethereal, sensual, extraordinary, subtle, adventurous, elegant, fascinating, seductive captivating. I leave it to you to continue the list.
