4 stars Review of Arabesques:

Compare this review to my recent review of To A New People. Most of what I wrote there applies, except that the two tracks here: Arabesques and Up the Pass, are quite a bit harder rocking! They have a similar sound to some more heavy Post/Math rock (such as Russian Circles). The longer track, Arabesques, has a hypnotic deep beat and melody, switching in the middle to a quicker bridge with an amazing bass-line. There are no vocals, but some cool vague talking at the end. Up The Pass has an up-tempo complex rock beat with some spacey-jazzy synth lines and a bit of funkiness.

Quite an enjoyable "album", (except, too short to be a real album). In spite of the length, I like it quite a bit more than To a New People (though mostly listen to them together, like they're a single album). 4.3 stars for sure. Recommended If you like heavier spacy, jazzy-rocking instrumentals.
