While I enjoy the idea of this with the MIDI Sprout and all, I found the album felt too constrained by its own concept. It often feels like someone simply fed a noise+ S&H circuit into a sequencer into a synth, resulting in random bleep bloops without much more to it. That the randomness comes from a plant instead of a noise source makes it cool but not any more musically interesting in my eyes. Track 3 or 10 are symptomatic of the aspects I don't like in this. Some tracks do create more of an atmosphere - 5 is really nice and what I was hoping to find here, 7 is too but overextends a fair bit, and 11 is kinda nice. But for the rest, and as much fun as it must have been to make, I don't find this to be very compelling. 2.3

Now this is a really outstanding experimental album: an album created from a plant's electrical biosignals converted into MIDI! This is an uplifting and mind-blowing experience, and the album has beautiful droney soundscapes and interesting melodies. An ethereal journey on nature's frequencies~
