I've been a fan for a long time and I am floored by this album. this is the culmination of YEARS of work. And it's truly a mindblowing album. I remember seeing Hortus Musicus 3 live in a backyard in suburban Chicago. locked it in my head ever since. hearing it again to close out this album gave me an insane rush of emotions. Also, "Little Tree" is the best song he's ever written imo.
To hear the sound of Melaina Kol develop over the years has been a privilege and a wild experience.
