ambient music -- nay, music in general -- really doesn't get much better than this. Tim Hecker has proven once again that he is perhaps the greatest mind in music today. i’m in ceaseless awe of his ability to distinctly reinvent with every release and yet maintain that undeniably magical sonic aura we've come to resonate with and cherish. this album is no different; it exceeded my impossibly high expectations and is yet another addition to his lengthy list of masterpieces. 10/10
