Excerpt: "<em>Dislocatia</em> is Brooklyn-based chamber-pop experimentalist Liam  Singer's third album. His first on Hidden Shoal. It is produced by Scott  Solter, as were his  second album; <em>Our Secret Lies Beneath The Creek (Tell-All)</em>, and features Wendy Allen on vocals, both of them from Boxharp,   another Hidden Shoal band. And even though the heavy influences from  this Californian duo is very audible, it is Liam Singer's chilly and  delightful compositions that  makes <em>Dislocatia</em> such an astonishing album.<em> Dislocatia</em> is a cycle of dusky contemporary chamber, that is  somewhat lightened with elegant pop-melodic craftsmanship. From the  instrumental opener "On Earth  a Wandering Stranger Was I Born" to the closure "Stinson Beach", the  soundscape is made of prosaic, romantic minimalism, an uneasy  melancholy, and charming metallic  beauty... Liam Singer challenges the borders of pop music  with his experimental, or contemporary musical, use of piano and  strings. This much aided by Wendy  Allen's heavenly backing vocals, that empowers the tunes in a classic  direction.... this album that probably is best described as just  beautiful."
