In times of fear and deprivation, you embark on a journey to a place of sensual fulfillment with »A Sky So Close«, the elegantly erotic new album by producer Eric Hilton. » "A Sky So Close" offers classic trip-hop sounds on 12 tracks that promise pure sensual pleasures. Hilton's production skills come into their own here, as well as the deep grooves he's been delivering since the early days of Thievery Corporation, which he co-founded in the mid-'90s. But on »A Sky So Close«, this music has a hedonistic weightlessness that borders on tantra, without a climatic climax that brings the listener back down to earth. Hilton lets you float in an expansive, delicious haze. Let go and fall into the sky. He is ... so ... close.
