A sweet album whose purpose I struggle a bit to see - I don't really know what story it wants to tell, partly due to the very minimal aesthetic at play here, and partly owing to the music itself being quite subdued. Mostly these are slightly dreamy, slightly weird RnB esque songs that vaguely remind of a much much tamer FKA Twigs or Banks, and I have to concede some are quite good - Jour 2,3,5 and 7 particularly. The others are fine but rather forgettable. It should be said that seing Helena Deland on the vocals here is really cool because this has absolutely nothing to do with her solo discog, which is yet another example showing the variety she is capable of. 3.5
