Does it sound vaguely familiar around 0.12 in the above clip? Seems to be track 2, Enclosure.

The Universal Music (Israel!) website describes this 5-tracker as an EP rather than an album, and I'm inclined to agree. I guess if the tracks were ten minutes long, then you could argue it's an album-length piece of work. But they're actually quite short.

I can't see these tracks on YouTube at the mo. Haven't checked Spotify cos I've forgotten my password!

Track 3, Gravity is a nice synth bass driven thing (or "indietronic" as the website says) which might appeal to NO people. I think it's my favourite of the five.

A shame it can't be bought (or, best as I can figure, ripped), since it's pretty good stuff and I'm always looking for lyric free tunes to play during work

At least one of these tracks ("Enclosure") is an instrumental version of Tom's Rubberbear song "Let's move somewhere else", which is nearly 10 years old. I didn't hear any more of Rubberbear other than that one song, but I wouldn't be surprised if the rest of these instrumentals were the basis for the other Rubberbear ep tracks.

Quite good stuff, would like to hear more - the strings are nicely done, perhaps that's something Tom also brought to Music Complete?

I think Joe Duddell handled most of the MC strings.
