If you've heard of The Tough Alliance, you've probably only heard their gloriously cheesy Scandanavian-new-wave/pop albums, i.e. the last two albums (this was the case with me, at least), in which case the Swedish duo's 2006 full-length may come as a surprise to you, as nothing could be more of a departure from their recent material. 'Escaping Your Ambitions' is a very creative ambient (and vaguely IDM-ish) album, with thoroughly unique production and an impressive melding of genres (found sound, modern classical), and without the sometimes tedious tendencies of their more recent material. Style: Ambient RIYL: Helios, White Rainbow Download: Leg 6
