This album desperately needs some proper mixing. Not even proper, but just some clearing up. There are many sounds, but not too many of them seem confident to exist alone without becoming muddy, muffled and diffused by other sounds. Some of the sounds are interesting, and some simply try to be. More needs to be refined before so much can happen, or else less needs to happen before a true rapport is developed between the musicians and the sounds being used. Ambitious, but caught up in certain predetermined expectations about what this type of new post-Folk/Ambient-Organic etc music should be.
