3 stars This tiny EP contains some of the most creative and genuine modern experimental music. A perfect marriage (oxymoron?) between psychedelic, atmospheric, droning electronic music and minimalist classical and opera-style vocals. The journey is really rewarding, and the textures and really alluring. And though the sounds are sometimes obviously synthetic, the journey is so pleasing that you don't even notice, and the atmosphere is so strong that you excuse it when you do notice. All four tracks are distinct, with abso-freakin'-lutely no filler! The calmness that dominates the album is what generates most of the atmosphere and mood. I am increasingly surprised with every listen at how much I really really enjoy this drugged-out, yet beautiful, little psychedelic post-rock album.
