about

REVIEWS

“Carefully constructed aural snapshots that cultivate a harmonious union of electronics and post-rocky guitar delays” - Orlandooom

“Absolutely beautiful” - The Siren Sound

“This release is a sensory journey…” - Matinee As Hell

“Gorgeous electronica; swirling ambience with a terrific post-rock influence…It’s blissed-out wonderment!” - Bandcamp Hunter

“…a promising collection of slow IDM electronics and chillwave melodies that I like to categorize as modern shoegaze. That being said, there is a lot of life to this release, and tracks such as “Green After So Much Blue, Was Like Music to My Eyes” will make you want to go outside and let a warm spring breeze carry you away” - Spaced City

“…I love it! Beautiful “chillwave” sound with post-rock influences” - VHSLove

“…it’s truly a masterpiece…Every track transports you to a different dimension, while at the same time giving you a sense of sensitivity and thought” - Hot Shizz

“Paul is an aural artist who through this project has created some of the most beautiful soundscapes South African ears have heard this year” - Uncovered Sounds

“He has found a subtle mix of electronic sounds/compositions and real instruments, creating stories that build up and turn into big waves that circle around you” - Massive Talent

“Crisp production and superb musicianship frames the EP nicely” - Floorshime Zipper Boots
