Sometimes wispy and then sometimes overly dramatic does give "conflicted feelings" here. But generally good synthesizer work along with predictable piano patterns. There are attempts at cinematic intrigue, but sometimes the "surprise" volume of some of the sounds seems out of place; maybe when I chill-out into the ambient "universe" I would rather float lightly and not bang into the objects of the cosmos. Some volume control and dynamics would make the compositions more inviting. I liked the vocal parts, but they seemed to be sprinkled in too sparsely. I say let the singer sing more words to explain what the feelings of the universe are at this moment in time; I'm certainly curious to hear the next release from this artist to find out if the feelings have been reconciled.

The guitar parts are perfect and create a consistent mood throughout. Great control and use of effects across the entire album. The mood is relaxed and yet precise, and the drum tracks add to the momentum of each song, and work well with the guitar riffs. I hope we hear more from this artist.

Rhythms of metallic objects entangled in debate. Scratching and chewing remanants of industry that interferes with natural sounds and breath; the piano tries to calm the patient while he stretches his neck for a final breath. Then the orchestra and piano try once again to have their conversation. What is the final outcome of the patient? Is this nirvana or a clever relapse back to the job-site in Zion City? Do we think that Zion would keep safe from the all-consuming machinery, or is this machinery the only way to create Zion? Thanks for the journey, either way.

Another treasure hidden in the depths of Jamendo. This is a very good sonic experience; thanks for the recently discovered journey. I like "Trial of Dust" and "Celestial Solvents" unique sounds and the way they are blended.
