1228 - the best of Line's fragile, touching poptronica on the sweet-laden Hearts [out today on the fine Uncharted Audio], pitting a gawky, faux-naif voice against melancholy, pretty electro-burble - a match for the epic, lo-fi loveliness of Half-Smile.
Other notable Heart-aches, like Go Let It Out & Optics, reweight this balance: a more strident, tearing vocal, more thrusting pulses & bleeps.
Remember early Thomas Leer? You might imagine that Line does (though he's doubtless a bit too young for the original Cherry Red Contradictions)...
