"so atmospherically cohesive and immersive"

"it very much feels like a suite to me"



Big agree to both.



And to the late year highlight thing. Loving this.

this is a such a step up from Hyaline. chord changes on the first two tracks are perfect and Lacuna has such a strong progression. bit overlong + leans too hard on occasionally drab folk arrangements and not enough into glitch, but this is a solid record

most of the best parts of this have glitch

or, more accurate, none of the unremarkable parts have glitch

My first several listens of this were on my vinyl copy but there were parts where I had to cross-check the digital version to confirm the glitchy bits were intentional and that my record wasn't skipping lol.

But yes this is indeed an unreserved improvement on Hyaline. That was a good album too but this is muuuuuuch more engaging and memorable for me.

yeah I tried listening to the previous album after being absolutely floored by this, and I turned it off like halfway in. Which isn't to say it was bad, but just nowhere near as interesting by comparison.

Same, it's a clear improvement over Hyaline. The glitchy aspects work wonderfully and are a big part of that, agreed.
