John Cratchley I'm new to Holly Herndon's music,so these are initial observations: her music feels very human although it is laptop generated...about the human condition,about using technology to express humanity (the track 'breathe' is a perfect example).There is a cerebral quality too (I feel a strong sense of composition here:thought-through work where conscious decisions have been made).I don't know why,but her music reminds me a lot of Meredith Monk (not stylistically but in approach,perhaps).I know a new album is imminent,so this represents where Holly Herndon was (not is now) but I think she is in for the long haul and that her musical world will forever advance and bring technology closer to humanity.
