      Beautiful. I haven't enjoyed a DeepChord album this much since Hash-Bar Loops. However, this is a much different sound - deeper, cleaner and less of the typical dub techno imprint.

      The sound is alive and continues to evolve.

          Love what rod does with music and the warmth n soul he has added to the imho cold (in of vibration) basic channel dub techno template.i loved reading his interview about his positive vibrational approach to frequency which he picked up from Michael mantra (sadly now ed away) . I have most of his LP output.regarding this LP, cd and 12" variants ...lots of high grade tracks to sit back into and enjoy the depth BUT I have to also say it as fantastic as it is sounds it feels rather like rod on formula, creating the magic he does but not stepping outside of his comfort zone....correct me if I'm wrong but sounds like the same drum patterns from many previous releases, similar melodic or textural sonics (which are detailed, lovely subtle and evolving for sure 🙏) therefore to me feels like it is not a distinct release artistically and personally from reading interviews with him about his creative insights I come away expecting more explorative creations that push himself and his sound further. Said with the utmost love and iration for rod and his creations

            Another beautiful album by Rod Modell. Soft and dreamy, excellent for both active listening or simply chilling. No complaints - solid 5 stars and possibly Album of the year for me.
