Really like the last track and how the piano pierces into the ambinent, atmospheric backdrops. Mysterious and ethereal but not one I expect to go back to all that often.

One of many Liz Harris' projects, Raum focuses on only the most positive of inputs - sounds of nature, birds chirping, trees waving, breeze flowing, themes of good, family, unity, hope, gentleness. Its whole aura is a tangible subtle beauty.

More than Grouper or even Raum's second LP, this really feels like Nivhek LP2. This is particularly prominent with the keys on 4, and once you realise this the Nivhek identitiy is also quite noticeable on 5, less so but still on 6 which feels a little more like random tape drone stuff, and somewhat on the very long 7 that lets the LP die out in agony and eventually drowns into depressed piano repetition that reminds of Basinski's Cascade but with more variation to the vast emptiness. Not a word is uttered on the whole record, which contributes to setting it apart from LP1, and makes it resolutely a drone album with lots of keys. 1 opens on a Sea Oleena-esque sad piano which doesn't prepare you for a drone album at all, and I got to say the way the droniness is introduced about after a minute was really one fo teh weaker points - it just feels like your audio crashed or something because it is so abrupt. The track is good though and gets very pretty once the piano comes back in. 2 is lovely drone, and 3 is good but less engaging perhaps - good thing 4 brought my interest back up with its Nivhekness. Man I missed Nivhek. 3.9

Album does have a good amount of emotion within it and on a late-night drive, this album can really put you in that reflective mood. However, when you really listen to the album it can be a bit shallow and one-dimensional. Some of the drones build into nothing and there is a lot of mid-2010?s Grouper influence all over the album.
