Reviews:
Vital Weekl, Rumore, The Silent Ballet...

"It’s the kind of album you want to put on continuously just to escape life’s erratic pace and start focusing on what really matters. [...] Simply Beautiful" FOXY DIGITALIS (F. Galbrun)

"Acoustic guitar, violin and electric piano caress the listener’s spirit through an excellent minimalist episode of “cinema pour l’oreille” worthy of recurring visits."
TOUCHING EXTREME (M. Ricci)

"An emptiness is felt after the disappearance of such beauty.
" THE SILENT BALLET (Greg Norte)

“Mellow music by and for mellow people, I'd say. Very enjoyable. Nice one!" VITAL WEEKLY (Frans de Waard)

"A nostalgic and shared afflatus that contemplates the life and death cycle." RUMORE (Vittore Baroni)


"Una delizia strumentale, 20 minuti di puro piacere sonico per i quali ringraziarli" IL MUCCHIO (Giovanni Linke)


Sparkle in Grey songs come from a long process of mixing and recordings from various sources, defined by Frans de Waard (Vital Weekly) as "a fine combination between that sorrowful tune played on the violin, the scraping and tinkling of sweet guitar sounds, the gentle crash on cymbal, along with time stretched field recordings."

Tex La Homa songs were written and recorded around the birth of Robin Neve Shaw, the inspiration and collaborator on these pieces of music. The fours tracks vary from the Kranky-style long guitar tunes to pop-folk songwriting, passing through 'light' experimental sounds, mostly taken from baby's sounds.
