This album just put me in a calm like I haven't felt in a very long time. It's just such a great blend of ambient and jazz without being too aggressively technical and it uses the hang and bass to provide order and rhythm, while the saxophone sinks into its environment, adding texture to an already washed out shore of serenity. Beautiful work, absolutely will continue to keep coming back to this.

As someone who doesn’t listen to a ton of jazz, albums like these really make me feel like I’m missing out on it. This album is atmospheric and it keeps a dark, but calm theme throughout. Pretty much every song on here is solid! I recommend others to try it out.

A super chilled out, jazzy, submersive experience LP. I feel like I've been in another world for the last 48 minutes. Totally excellent.

A set of low-key and interesting tracks.
