“Those familiar with Silver's work know he is fond of smaller-scale thematic/stylistic exercises like this, and on these grounds On Vacation succeeds nicely, but those looking for a bolder artistic statement may be disappointed by its conventionality.”

Vacation, the second in a new series of mini-albums for the Ibiza-based International Feel label, is rich with Balearic textures: marimbas, choral synth pads, creamy soprano sax, acoustic guitars run through shimmering digital reverb. It takes cues from genre staples like Penguin Café Orchestra, Wally Badarou, and Sade.
