Album Review

Reviewed 2016-08-26
Kaleidoscopic chillwave. Drowned-out drowsy vox, atmospherics, guitar washes, krautrock rhythms. Highly recommend listening to this front-to-back if you’d like to dissolve into a mystical mindscape. RIYL Stereolab 'Dots and Loops', Toro y Moi, UMO. No FCCs.

1. (1:40) ** Ion—Airy ringing synths, lo-fi noise, Edenic, sets the tone for the record really nicely
2. (3:40) ** Riddles of the Sphinx—Glowing, swaying, psychey, krauty jam
3. (4:59) **** Feedback Delicates—Classic ‘60s psych/Stereolab invites a jazzy BadBadNotGood-style breakdown, loads of dreamy effects, phenomenal
4. (3:08) L’Quasar—Upbeat, shuffled drums, hazy psychedelic chillwave
5. (3:56) Celestial Gold—Dreamy bladerunner, drum machine, twinkling synths, some sections with bass and more hectic synths
6. (4:24) ** Evol—Frenetic, jittery post-punk, stand out bass, soft ambient outro
7. (3:41) ** Voidless—Tribal beats and instrumentation, guitar distortion, group vocals, colorful primal Animal Collective feel
8. (3:11) ** Mercurial Vestiges—Plodding psychey dreamscape, total bliss
9. (3:49) *** The Presence of Absence—Vocals similar to early Blood Orange, hazy R&B groove, gliding nature synths, sublime
10. (3:08) ** Emerald Isle—Dreamy elevated dance track, my kinda jam
11. (7:33) *** Aboroun—Odyssean, sick bass groove, light gliding cheesy synths that remind me strongly of Jazz Loon (thank you Hervey for introducing me to that peerless bit of sonic glory), subdued ambient in last three minutes
