From Discogs:
"This is a dreamy electronic thrill ride that so happens to feel like music I've only before imagined. At first, it's just incredibly textured glitch with magnificent rhythm, and then it just gets more complex from there. Elements of shoegaze flow in and out the entire album from the second song on, and step in at just the right times to put more oomph into the melodies while the electronics control everything else. Some of the sounds are so tight and well-placed, it just sometimes feels sparkly all on the ears even if you're not listening. Overall, extremely original and well-adjoined hybrid of simply great music. So many of the songs just grab on and won't let go; at this time of writing I've only listened to it once (but how carefully I've listened!). Lastly, it's 1.2 hours long, and with enough variety to support itself. For now, this is a dream-glitch masterpiece in my mind, an essential electronic gem in my opinion."
