Description/Reviews: 

In a departure from his previous outings, two tracks on the new work include vocals and lyrics. But Neil insists the latest material sits well alongside 2005′s All In The Golden Afternoon… and 2011′s Out Of The Woods. He explains: “Astro aims to be more synth-based, owing to the sci-fi themes it draws on. The album relies heavily on layers of synths, although there is the occasional acoustic timbre.”
