Comment: It was not much time ago when this album of 7 tracks was remixed by a bunch of various artists under the title Eye See You Too (issued on the 23 Seconds records). Tracing Arcs is a British duo consisting of Fran Kapelle (vocal/lyrics) and Paul H. Addie (synths/programming) who started out the project in the mid of 90`s. In fact, their musical characteristics revealing itself as coming forth from this time either. Their soundscape used to be profoundly smoky, more detailly Bristolian trip-hop beats-backed, their purple-hued chamber music backdrops are mixed up with Kapelle`s highly sensual, seductive vocal ramblings. At times Addie does add cinematic orchestrations and nu jazz-y parcels and spacious noir minutiae. By listening to the album you will get evidenced that the duo`s ideological elements descend somehow from indie music (having similarities with Pulp, and Ian Brown) and more straightforwardly from 4 Heroes seminal album Two Pages as well. All you can do is just to soak it up. It is really worth to do it. Unfortunately for the band, first of all, this album should have been recorded approximately 15 years ago.
