– Track Reviews:

1. (7:14) Empty Sky - very low sound for first 15 seconds, pulsing tones over jangly unfocused guitar, then looping saw-like tones and pitch-bending
2. (9:30) The Void - echoey, spooky, creepy sounds wafting through unheated hallways, shimmers of harp
3. (5:52) Reflection - random tones, then a melody sets in, very staticky, ghostly background echoes; Stops at 5:42
**4. (9:03) Lake at Dawn - tuning sounds with kaleidoscope bursts, then a melody of sorts expanding outward
**5. (6:20) Eternal Return - slow pitch-bending and tight rewinds, building in layers and volume; Stops at 6:13
