Album Notes & Community Reviews

The veteran electronic producer returns with an incredibly varied, sweeping cinematic record honoring the expansive sonic landscapes of classic IDM and progressive electronics. The album moves fluidly between ominous synthesizer dirges, intricate beat programming, and lush, vocal-led ambient pop, featuring high-profile contributions from Thom Yorke, Linda Perhacs, and Bibio. It is a masterful, highly immersive sonic journey.
