As the title suggests, the album is the result of duo Brad B Wood and Conrad Astley marrying luscious acoustic loveliness with all the wonders of the electronic age.
And the marriage, as a host of reviewers and radio DJs have already noticed, is certainly a happy one, with tracks taken from it having caught the attention of good people everywhere.
Blowback magazine wrote: "Merchandise make the kind of acoustic electronica that'd be the soundtrack to a summer picnic in Hyde Park , with cute animals frolicking in the sun. A whole album of beautiful music. The sound of pastoral idylls and eternal sunshine."
Elsewhere, Gill Rickson of SBN Radio commented: "It's like someone got hold of Rae and Christian and made them cut up a Kings of Convenience album."
