Really cool and ripe with ideas, flowing (somewhat) seamlessly from genre to genre whilst maintaining a coherent, lovely dreamy fairyesque atmosphere with bleeps and bloops and cuddly chimes. There's bit of techno (5), vaporwave DNA all over, sad piano on 7 prefaced by a lovely section on 6, ethereal trap beats on 8, you name it. I do find I preferred the boppier, catchier tracks, like 5 before it unfolds into a happy childhood, or 9-10 with their delightful 80s spin. I do find 11 to be a bit of a bummer, being back to the slow mellowness, when 12 would have connected with 9-10 much better. It's a good conclusion and a nice 10 min piece that slowly relaxes you out of the album. There is nothing profoundly outstanding on this, but it is a sweet listen through and through and a keeper. 3.7
