Rated 5/5
Review by wfkroll Feb 23, 2008
This album is ridiculously underrated. The SFC are showing no signs of slowing down by following the fantastic Underwater Adventure Hop Secret Treasure ep with this fully realized audio journey. The concept here is well thought out and achieved, and by combining homegrown organic elements with a lush electronic setting they create an entire would of sound and mood. It is a very melodic hip hop/dub/electro hybrid in a style similar to classic Plaid (Double Figure/Restproof Clockwork). Highly recommended, I just wish it was longer!!!

A truly beautiful record which combines classic anaologue electronic with guitars, pianos, trombones and bass to create one of the most evocative records of the year. There are hints of Boards Of Canada, Jean-Michel Jarre-circa Oxygene, Portishead and so many more stuff on this record, yet it is totally unique.
Rated 5/5

One of the finest albums I've heard in a long while. The mix of organic and artificial ingredients is superb. Everything is perfectly placed, and this thing just flows. Sublime.
