So, new one... I was excited by the p4k "80's new wave" references but this is very much the continuation of Becs and Black Sea I would say - perhaps a bit too slow and abstract for my taste at this point.

Yeah, I'm not feeling this one, unfortunately (and I liked Black Sea) and I agree the 80s new wave references were a tad misleading

three months pass...

It isn't happening in bite-sized chunks - and abstract it certainly is

I thought it relocated Fennesz back to a context of Gas, Chain Reaction and Porter Ricks

When the glinting neon bliss arrives, as it does in the second halves of Rainfall and We Trigger the Sun, it is truly wonderful

Worth a relook

Yeah this is absolutely blowing me away right now. I don't think it's so abstract, I was struck by how immediate the appeal was. Vast and enfolding and gorgeous. Time to re-run the ambient albums poll.
