This meanders far too much, and for far too long. I'm sure bonked out of your mind it must be fun to play these pieces, but for the listener there's a little too much space, and a little too much exploration that feels a bit random, like someone spent an evening on their DAW and recorded raw trains of thought sometimes. This is a shame, because the sound itself can be quite compelling. The spooky piano on 1 is captivating, and Arooj's vocals add flair to a piece which already had heaps of it. Buuuut some moments do get awkward. Similarly with 2,3, and 4, although the sound vary and get a lot more electronic in places. The last half hour is frankly too much, especially when the last track (at least on Spotify) is just an excerpt of 1, which only serves to remind you how long ago it was that the album captivated you. 3.3
