They really are better than most everyone else right now.

shadows from the past is a banger

Solid album. The only problem I have (and had with his last album as well) is that the tracks tend to leave my memory the instant the album is finished. Maybe it needs more listens but I usually find that electro albums like this son't really stick with me.

Got this and the Traveller CD repress today. Sleeves are remarkably thin and flimsy given the extortionate price.

Quality of the music more than makes up for it though. Think I might even prefer this to Traveller.

Brought the CD LOL

Just got my CD, artwork is ace

Got the vinylz last week, this is indeed good shit. Liked Traveller already but this is further improved. Top banana.

lovely album, better than traveller, which was already very good.

Yeah, multiple listens are lodging plenty of these tracks in my head. Really enjoying the expansion beyond the traditional electro sound, lots of breaks and acid lines in there. Repeat plays are revealing lots of magic.

No doubt. Looking forward to hearing their upcoming ep on Exalt too.

Listened to this a few times on Spotify, it's unbelievably good, just sprung for the extremely expensive 2CD version off their Bandcamp.

I agree with the general feeling here that this is a step up from Traveller, that was decent IMO but I'm thinking this is top notch after 3 full listens.

@dr lopez will i like this?

i think so - depends on how much you like that IDM inflected electro sound ala later b12 etc. it's definitely good to me

it's like going to le bernardin or something. you know what you're going to get, it's not "innovative" or "cutting edge" but my god is it immaculate and delicious.

This is your best review

Just wanted to pop in and say after 20+ plays of this album, it’s close to the favorite music I’ve heard this decade (only a couple years in granted, but still).

They do such a great job creating atmosphere.

Think its about time I had a listen to this.

Just want to remind you all that this track exists. That’s all.

Managed to get up to Parsec before getting interrupted by work gremlins. Absolute solid set of opening tunes executed at a high standard. Looking forward to finishing it off a bit later.
