What an astounding album. Styles range from lo-fi noise à la Broadcast to metal-meets-Lana del Rey to experimental distant-sounding noise to lovely guitar-based scaled-down rock. This is truly inspirational and too short an album, even though it clocks in at nearly 90 minutes of length. Wow.

This is an album that, to paraphrase Jon Hopkins, just came about without intellectual process. While I doubt that somewhat—Hopkins is a masterful audio engineer and a great composer, and those qualities aren't solely attained as gifts from above/below—this is both a psychedelic and very warming album, at least to myself. There are a lot of analogue feel to the album.

This music reminds me of the most sacral and ambient music made by the wonderful Popol Vuh. Also, I find this album to be a great step from Hopkins's last album, Music for Psychedelic Therapy.
