Mainly in the very sparingly used instrumentation and slight influences in the melodies - very little; nothing like Norah at all (thankfully). This is more a down-beat electronica album, that consistently has great melodies, a sense of place, and enough variation to keep things interesting long term. Great through headphones.
As an aside, I have recently read some reviews of this album, from glowing to mediocre; the mediocre reviews (there are not many) seem to miss what I view as the strengths and general intent of this album and mark it down for not being what they would have liked it to be...
I like it, but then I don't need constant titillation, cheap thrills, or for it to be 'progressive' to connect with it emotionally. That said, a whole heap of music-lovers won't like it either; that is what is great about music.
Enjoy
