Reservoir albums Syncopated rhythms, drones, delays and echoey synthesizers dot the musical landscape. The lo-fi sound quality adds to the charm of Ehrbar's crooning on "Let's Fall In Love Again" and "Weight Of The World," which is comfortably paced by a drum-machine and minimal piano playing. Demonstrating how far his experimentation has come, Ehrbar triumphs via the layered effects and rhythms of "Air Coryell." Not really an album to throw on at parties, PINK MACHINE is a journey best taken between headphones Having dabbled with proggy, sound sculptures in the now defunct Space Needle and drummed in the grungy, Crazy Horse-influenced Varnaline, Jud Ehrbar attempts to fuse both sensibilities on PINK MACHINE. Credited to Reservoir, this one-man project is the logical progression following a self-titled debut full of Ehrbar's eclectic instrumental dabbling. Although he introduces vocals here, PINK MACHINE is far from a traditional pop album. Reservoir includes: Jud Ehrbar.

Reservoir CD discography While their other motion picture soundtrack, First Love, Last Rites, contains more traditionally pop-structured songs, their soundtrack for the film High Art is much more of an authentic movie score. The compositions are mostly ambient, with gentle washes of synthesizers and laid-back hip-hop beats creating airy textures -- in other words, a complete departure musically for Shudder to Think. Their goal was to create music that would baffle the listener into figuring out which instrument was playing what, and they've easily succeeded. "Battle Soaked (Amnesian Mix)" is a Prince-sounding funk workout, while "She Might Be Waking Up" is the only track on the soundtrack that contains vocals and lyrics. Two other bands contribute tracks similar in style -- "The Gavial" by Reservoir and "That's Fat" by JeepJazz Project, which fit in perfectly with the Shudder material. Highly recommended to fans of ambient and Shudder to Think. ~ Greg Prato Original score by Shudder To Think. Shudder To Think-Score/Songs Jeep Jazz Project,Reservoir Photographer: Jojo Whilden.
