Review of Are we moving yet? (The men of the Fulton Fish Market)

One of the good things about this piece is that it takes us to a place where we usually don't go - at least during those working hours. Having said that,I agree with Dmae, generally. I think the listener may feel like he is in the market but I think it's like he's always talking to the workers and never standing by, "just watching" them working. How can I say it? There's some background action that could take the front line here and there, something like that. But, even so, it was a nice tour for me, "over the ocean".

Review of Here There is No Moon (U.S. version 26:37)

Very interesting, almost like we could hear the voices inside their heads (our heads?), before, during and after "that" moment. I just felt that I would like to hear more about one or two stories and they just.. went away. The soundscapes are very good.
