On Electronic Highway, CJ Bolland distances himself from the stark acid-techno and trance of his early career with a set of emotive, symphonic tracks.

On "The Tower of Naphtali" he uses toybox melodies to soften the blow, while a few faraway vintage synth lines spice "Con Spirito" and the highlight "Zenith."

Cisco Ferreira also helps out on two tracks, a remix of "Spoof" and "Drum Tower." ~ John Bush, Rovi
