I love the sound displayed here, but the format it is showcased in is also frustrating, as - aside from 11 which just about reaches the 3:15 mark - everything here is a collection of sketches between 1-2min long, with fade in intros and fadeouts. And even 11 is pretty short. As such, the record feels more like a collection of disjointed drafts, or a demo to show her sounds, rather than a full fledged EP/album. But I do really like the sound she crafts, whether it be groupery loopey drone folk, or much lighter vocal loopey stuff. 11 for example is really light hearted and enchanting, making me want to live amongst hippies swimming in norwegian wildflowers. Other favourites would be 1,3,6,8, idk honestly I liked it all. If her later records build on this sound she's likely to become a Bede favourite. Now how do I rate this,. 3.5
