It?s interesting to see Fennesz, one of the bigger names in underground ambient music, still going after all these years of producing mediocre albums. He teams up with another smaller duo of electroacoustic artists to create a tranquil and atmospheric ambient project not too far off from what Fennesz was doing in the late 90s and early 2000s. If you are a fan of Tim Hecker, then you really need to give this album a try because there is a lot of stylistic overlap. The booming and progressive drones add a lot of triumph and power to the already stochastic and linear-sounding glitches and noise. Overall, the second half is really where this album shines through since everything accumulates to such a grand and enchanting finish. But the first half has a lot of interesting textures to it that it is an overall enjoyable and memorable listening experience.
