Unlike her prior indie pop/folk effort, this one is almost wholly ambient and would belong on Erased Tapes. And frankly I find it very successful. There are perhaps a few downsides. After 3 you're kind of feeling the tracks build up to nothing and are introey without ever resolving, (but that feel goes away right after), the glitchy synth sounds starting off 5 are quite abrupt and broke the mood for me before the track goes back to lovely softness and mellowness thereafter, feeling a bit like music for ambient geat demos, and finally the concluding track has mixing issues. I appreciate the intent of keeping vocals (other than samples) as a nice surprise for the end and a callback to her first LP, but they are mixed way too loud to a nearly startling level, and that's a shame because prod is otherwise absolutely stellar on this. But all in all despite these downsides this is a very pretty, relaxing ambient record that I'd recommend. The use of pianos, on 1 over aquatic sounds, 6, 8, and 9 is particularly successful, the synths and electronic sounds are well mastered, and the sparse use of field recordings is aptly done especially with the waves on 7. Brava. 3.8
