3 stars Excellent album and a pleasant listen. Fans of progressive electronic music may love this. That said, it is more of a homage than exploring new grounds. As a homage, it succeeds.

Alda is a great track of more than 20 minutes. The atmospheric soundscapes keep me interested the whole time. There's just enough variance in the music to keep it enjoyable for me. The best part for me starts at 12 minutes when the pace picks up with the guitar. 8.5/10

Orka I is a fast-paced song with great guitar. Exactly what I would like at this point 8/10

Rán is a 4-minute soundscape. Nice 7/10

Hraznō is another great soundscape that has some nice guitar bits, picking up speed around the middle. 7.5/10

Himinglćva ok Kolga is the third great soundscape in a row. All tracks are beautifully atmospheric and are unique. 8/10

Orka II is a faster-paced closer. A great way to end the album. 8/10

This album is a very pleasant listen. But it is nothing shocking, nothing to push the envelope. This is why I rate it 3 stars. It's good. But not-essential.
