This album is far beyond music, as it is almost only made from field recordings picked up in Montreal.
Distant cruising cars, murmur of an ubiquitous crowd, humming subways, sound of children or various static noises, Tim Westcott processed and mixed these sounds to create a parallel living universe from real sounds. A hidden world behind our primary vision, made aerial and imperceptible thanks to the reverberation of the sound.
A release hard to tame, but definitely rewarding in the end. Dotflac

Being recorded "in the early morning hours of (a) Saturday", i simply decided to celebrate this particularity by listening to this album especially on Saturday mornings, before going to sleep after a long gaming night or after a techno party. BVCVLEI

Even if he says otherwise, Ian Hawgood is super prolific and incredibly talented in not only his own releases, but in collaborations and with the heart & soul put into the labels he's run over the years.
Saying all that, this is a more recent favorite release of Ian's: peaceful, deceivingly simple (yet not!) piano works that is personal, elegant and graceful in its warmth and presentation. Plus it's for a wonderful cause. Get it!! Joe Borreson
