Reissue of this 2010 album from the experimental Electronic outfit. The music (actually a melting together of 12 individual tracks, each inspired by one or other of the titular stations) unfurl in one long, dream-like 'train ride' suite through the psycho-geography of two cities whose ambiguous histories remain immutably bound up with notions of 'the underground'. It's a curious but compellingly procession through an echoing mosaic of half-heard parlor pianos, gauzy electronics, mournful trumpets, preternatural throbs and even a baroque fragment of the Rolling Stones' She's a Rainbow, blown into our ears through tunnels of yesteryear. It's eerily beautiful in the subtle, yet emotionally charged manner of Gavin Bryars' the Sinking of the Titanic or Brian Eno's on Land, yet, for all that, a unique and compelling sound world that's all it's own.
