This Binary Universe

“BT is a pioneer in the field of electronic music. Released in 2006, this album redefined for me what music could be. Each song defies genre. The original release included full-length music videos by guest artists on DVD for each of the seven, nearly 10-minute songs, which were composed with a veritable orchestra of synths, hacked toys, and custom-programmed instruments with Csound. "Good Morning Kaia" hits hardest -- a love letter from BT to his daughter, written not as lyrics but presented as words superimposed in-time over home videos. BT remastered this album in late 2025, but I recommend the original. The tweaks he made didn't add much and at times felt jarring, at least for a fan of the 2006 album.”
