2007 reissue of this album, originally released by Mille Plateaux. "Misplaced nautical charts, trade winds, shortwave miscommunication, midnight whispers, amorxxx. Alien8 Recordings is reissuing Radio Amor, originally released on Mille Plateaux in 2002, in order to maintain the availability of the works of one of our label's most important artists. The recording has been out of print for two years now, out of grasp of Hecker's growing legions of admirers. Hecker is still basking in the universally glowing reception of this year's Harmony in Ultraviolet on Kranky (Score 8.7 / Best New Music on Pitchfork), the follow-up to 2004's Mirages on Alien8 Recordings. Radio Amor is a key release in Hecker's discography, bridging his output between our Haunt Me (2001) and My Love is Rotten to the Core (EP, 2002) releases and 2004's Mirages. Radio Amor is a brilliant soundtrack for daydreaming, and Tim Hecker's effective variations on a few central ideas once again show a gifted composer at work."
