Just got my copy. Thank you very much Archipel. Presentation of the CD is awesome. Very personalized and how music should always be presented.

Starts off very weird and has this nostalgic dreamy sound. Love it. Full review to come later.

The intro track really reminded me of Boards of Canada. It's kind of a one-off track, very focused whereas most of the other tracks are long and drawn out. It and Algonquin are probably my favorites after a little while. I *really* expect this to be a grower album though.

Oh yeah and the package was very cool. Jesse has mentioned synaesthesia in interviews in the past and I think it really shows here, both in the music and the pictures chosen.

Can you take some pix please?

I don't have a camera with me right now. The pictures are very saturated, with few (as in number) colors. Think the cover of Music has the Right to Children and you're not far off.

neat.

My copy was waiting for me when I got back from holiday, not listened yet as waiting for a quiet evening, a bottle of booze and my headphones to gize it it's due. Presentation is sweet though, congrats!

RA put up their review. They.... liked it?!

Kind of expected a low score as it's basically the opposite of what's cool.

Real nice album. Lots of well done ambient/downtempo tracks with a bit of subtle techno thrown in for drive. The techno tracks are never overbearing and the ambient and downtempo tracks were interesting and immerse enough.

Favorite cut has to be 'Good Morning Strange Light'.

Good Morning Strange Light is amazing - and am sure the forthcoming remix(es) will be just as good ;)

It reminds me so much of Outhouse it's crazy.

Forgot to say that I got this and it's really good. Favorite track is definitely "Hypnogogii."
