3.8 excellentErwann S. STAFF | December 9th 21

Waves of minimalistic textures trading places for 15 minutes. At times the lead is taken by weird vocal samples, tribal drums, progressive electronic, or what seems like microhouse's dying breath.

3.5 greatAlabaster Jones | June 7th 15

A minimalistic electronic ambient soundscape with some sprinkles of downtempo and IDM is what this latest two-track EP from New York's own Nicolas Jaar is packed with. Though it may only be fifteen minutes, it's a quite interesting and calming fifteen minutes. "The Three Sides Of Audrey And Why She's All Alone Now" sets the stage with a beautifully tranquil atmosphere which builds bit by bit into something slightly bigger. It's subdued, but a keen ear will hear the subtle influences from the house genre as well as IDM. "No One Is Looking At U" takes the atmosphere from the opener and runs with it, but takes an even more subdued route than its predecessor. It's a nice EP, it's very easy to listen to, and any fan of ambient electronic should enjoy this.

A great sounding little EP, kind of works like one long track. Really imaginative manipulation of sounds
