Description: EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Montreal-based producer Mike Silver, aka CFCF, has announced the release of ''Outside'', his first full LP since 2009's beat driven ''Continent'', which is set for release November 19th, 2013 on Paper bag Records. Much of the tracks were written while he was traveling on buses and trains, usually between Montreal, where he recently appeared at the renowned Montreal Jazz Festival, New York or Toronto, and the music reflects the yearning for stability that comes from constant movement, as well as the fascination with the inherent beauty of new environments. Over the course of the album, Silver experiments with the idea of beauty. Whether it's the beauty of the natural world-lush forests, daunting mountain ranges or the man-made shadows and angels of architecture; a parking lot's endless sprawl. Though he's looking outward, ''Outside'' is still a personal album drawing on loneliness and the distinct smallness that comes from being part of the world, while still acknowledging the beauty inherent in existing in it. In the hands of a less defined artist, there'd likely be a disconnect between the external and internal elements of emotion, but Silver excels at making that situate him in particular environments, exploring how the effect his emotional state through the contrast of natural and synthetic elements

REVIEW
Silver's forthcoming sophomore album ''Outside,'' is a return to form, exploring CFCF's love for cyclical, interwoven melodic patterns. --Pitchfork

Mike Silver layers his vocals over gradually crescendoing instrumentals (massive drums, synth planes, an eerily beautiful arpeggiator scale bubbling over and over), lyrics surrounding themes of travel and escape. --Pretty Much Amazing
