Unfortunately, I am not feeling this project. I get its inspirations, and I'll fully admit I'm not the biggest fan of downtempo IDM, but the beats and sounds on this project are just not as interesting or memorable as what artists such as Autechre, Aphex Twin and Bola can come up with. The production is clean and polished, and there's a few tracks where I was enjoying myself quite a bit. But alas, the album does not hold up as a whole.
