Comment: similarly to the project's another release Of Life's Declivity the recent case is a blend of cut-up electronic snippets and lighthearted folksy plucks. Furthermore, the 12-track issue is imbued with lo-fi and DIY aesthetic. However, it is the general description of the album. More profoundly, you can hear different minutiae from 8-bit rhythmic patterns to street music from Paris, from psychedelic electro bugs to harp driven lofty imaginations and even old-fashioned harpsichord chords stumbling over the course. Its methodological thread reminds me of the fancy Super Furry Animals though musically it is a disparate case. That's funny. At times the approach goes into a childish direction as if a stylised play for remembering all that naive and intact from your very childhood. This decent release is a part of the discography of The Daydream Generation.
