Album Notes & Community Reviews

Kieran Hebden returns to a highly melodic, accessible framework, blending delicate harp plucks and nature field recordings with warm, club-ready microhouse beats. The record is noted for its remarkably soothing, pastoral atmosphere, balancing moments of subtle dancefloor energy with lengthy, beatless ambient interludes. It serves as a gentle refinement of his signature organic electronic sound.
