I'm somewhat of a gigantic Hood fan and yet I found very little appeal in the album, despite widespread critical acclaim.

I like that Stargazing EP. I mean, as you've said, there's like zero originality in there but if it's a dead/rare style like 90's atmospheric jungle you can get away with it.
And now that you say it, I'm kind of surprised as well that the Dundov record didn't make it into any lists despite getting good reviews and reception almost everywhere.

Too close to trance?

As I've said, it got very positive reviews even on supposed no-trance hipster websites (RA review)
