Daily Thumbprint Collection is a solo album by drummer Caleb Dolister. The album consists of several songs that have been worked, reworked, and then reworked again - some taking as long as 5 years.
The initial sound is similar to that of a Downtempo, NuJazz, or Instrumental Indi-Rock album. It seems to be electronic-sounding, containing many ambient background sounds and fluid melodic synth-bass lines. But very quickly, the music starts becoming too unpredictable to be just another mix or loop based album...
Many albums in the semi-electronic genre consist of live instruments played with sampled drum samples or loops. This album is the opposite: live drums.
Approaching the album in this way seems to have given Caleb Dolister's solo project a unique sense of life. It's not just an electronic solo album - the life in the rhythms give it the energy of a rock album. For the listener - it presents itself very much like a personal soundtrack, but will surprise you with ferocious percussive energy and performance throughout.

The first time I listened to this album I was amazed at the sound quality and the use of various instruments. I especially enjoyed the sound effects and how they correlated with the drums.
The use of strings in track one was dark, moving, and powerful. The piano melody in track two was inspirational, almost like a story was being told without words. Track three had a sweet drum beat. Track four reminded me of a Nintendo game, I smiled. Track seven seemed like a story of someone on a mission to do something with obstacles along the way.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this CD and plan on adding it to my collection. I plan on closing my eyes, enjoying the tunes, (in a real nice stereo with surround sound.) and drinking a glass of delicious wine.
