LP version. "Following the success of his 'Volume' EP earlier this year, Tim Koch backs his synth-pop ridden single with this long-player. Tim has also made music for video games (for Vorlon Software), two albums for Aural Industries, and contributed tracks to Isophlux, Neo-Ouija, Carpark and Smart Pussy. Retaining intricate melodies without being classically 'over-programmed', Shorts In Alaska kicks off with the Plaid-esque 'Blat' which first appeared on the 'Two You See' sampler. The gentle 'Switch Invert' is coupled with the chaotic 'Lull'. The album ends with the complex timing of 'Fobile Moaning'. Essential for fans of: Arovane, Black Dog, Boards of Canada, Warp."

"Bright new album by Australian Tim Koch. His musical career began with playing bass and drums in local bands, afterwards approaching the electronic scene where he has reached a very nice status. Even though he is more known for his vIdeo-game styled and IDM electronica, Koch also has the sheer talent to create beautiful ambient or pop pieces with a fine sense of composition. In this 16-track album Koch shows his more emotive, ambient and mellow side without letting behind the beats and rhythms. The compositions result in a perfect balance flowing into gentle melodies, rhythmic complexities, bright sounds, emotional soundscapes, beautiful atmospheres and contagious beats, showing the maturity of this musician. Fans of Autechre, Arovane and Lackluster will surely enjoy this album."
