Ellipse, third solo album by British singer/songwriter Imogen Jennifer Heap; released, on August 25, an engaging fresh scent of motions. On July 10, the first single to hit the airwaves on Santa Monica's KCRW radio station was First Train Home. The song travels around lyrical repetition and an electronically shrouded mellow rock composition. The album mixes an intriguing rock, vastly synched with electronic influences, by means of the sublet use of the paired singing harmonies that Imogen Heap offers to her productions.

Bad Body Double embarks on a fusion of natural sound effects and psychedelic rhythms that narrates Imogen Heap’s story of a strange, but remarkable way, of expressing her feelings towards a shadow. The album Ellipse is a trip of humming sounds and whispery words, vaguely reminiscent to the hit album Details by Frou Frou, a side project made by the collaboration between Imogen and Guy Sigsworth. Heap’s talented trajectory creates an unparalleled style that only suits her voice. On Little Bird she engages on the fluent use of echoes and natural sound effects alongside a harmonious electronic piano.

On the other hand, Ellipse may lack lyrics and narrative. Some songs involve bopping sounds that made you think would be the background of a great musical piece, but turned out to be the whole song. The album experiences musical silhouettes of mind trips she may have had alone in her house.

One of Heap’s trademarks is the excessive computer use in the production of her works; which indeed makes this an original piece. Though it is no Hide and Seek, the album could be a masterpiece in itself. Half Life is one of those songs where you can see her effort on creating beauty with her soft and peaceful voice. Ellipse certainly shows its best by shifting focus to the simple things in life and making them an inspiration. Tracks like Canvas stand out as it gives a similar vibe some could experience from music by Seal.

Overall the album may seem lacking in content, but for someone who enjoys sitting around and leave this worldly dimension with soft, ironically earthly rhythms, this CD is for you. Just by the contemplation of the music’s imagery and the delving natural hum she emits, Ellipse takes us through a smooth perception where nothing matters.
