An atmospheric album that’s superbly crafted, it has great synth sounds, intricately crafted drum patterns often backed up by percussive rhythms and guitar riffs that compliment the sound really well.
There’s a great balance between momentum and ambience often providing just an edge of tension at times.
Glow Lines
Atmospheric delayed synth to open propelled by a kind of breakbeat / IDM drumbeat. Excellent background sounds and really good change of feel when the guitar enters.
What About Now ft A. Sandborne
Delayed vocals and pad to open propelled by a solid kick drum lead into a guitar riff. Great layering of percussive elements that contrast really well with more ambient elements.
Waves of You
Bass and driving kick to open, the synth line adds a contrast. The delayed trem chords are an excellent element. The song has a great mementum and an uptempo, urgency building to a final release.
The Curvature of the Earth
Atmospheric opening from bass drone, delayed percussion and pad given momentum by a kick drum, building drum / percussive rhythm and slow lead line. Great contrast between the uptempo and more ambient elements.
A Human Element
Delayed percussive rhythm and background sounds create an atmospheric opening given a momentum by more defined drums / percussion and synth lead. Nice changes in feel.
Several Soma
Pulsing drone with delayed percussion create a kind of mystery that changes to a more upbeat feel with the momentum of the drum pattern / percussive elements and synth leads.
Temporality
Strings to open, a pulsing effect with great background sounds. There’s a great balance between an urgency and more ambient vibe. Vocals add an edge of tension.
