Phenomenal. Weathered by tape noise and warbles, but melodically and texturally well composed and gorgeous. As a fan of the Wheel of Time books, this took me right to Randland again.
Vaelastrasz always manages to find this wonderful balance between delicate minimalism and melodic complexity that fills me with inexplicable nostalgia. This one in particular had me longing for a time I am not certain existed or not—some truly tear jerking moments throughout this absolutely stellar recording.
These ten meditations certainly serve as the perfect backdrop to wandering gardens and groves with deep contemplation. Yet another wonderful piece of music from Ellis.
