~pretty~ textures that are very lush, thank you very much. When carried by Omori's gorgeous vocals, this new agey ambient pop record is ~bliss~ even though, at points, it does meander without truly concluding its offers. Nevertheless a great listen, it's oh so bubbly.

4.0 excellentajcollins15 | March 22nd 22

Ambient pop is always a hit or miss for me since it depends on how an artist approaches it. On the one hand, you have artists who focus much more on the pop melodies and progression with small nuances of ambient textures. While others focus much more on the ambient textures and drones and throw vocals over them. For me, I much prefer ambient pop albums like this one, the debut album from Japanese born and London based artist. Rich, layered, and textured ambients and drones that flutter away like a butterfly. While you lightly hear the caressing and lush vocals on top. This debut album is a great showing of when ambient and pop music collides for a great listening experience. Although the Grouper influence is fairly potent on some of the cuts here, it?s very enjoyable and engaging to listen from front to back, although can get a bit stale after 40 or so minutes in.
