Brassy rays expand and contract from the Shadows (22:17) which extend into the farthest reaches of imagination. Streamlined musical strands glimmer amongst more abstract hisses, drones and other sci-fi effects. The track segues right into Longing, almost 15 more minutes of interstellar activities... drifting, warbling, phasing in and out teleporter-style, like the space-strings which carry over from that piece, resurfacing in Transition; clones of their previous incarnations are joined by additional buzzing reverberations and arpeggiated twinkles.
Similarly, the pulsing energies of that track, reappear in
Beyond the Glaze, where strident strands begin to oscillate and the low end forms a crawling three- and four-note riff. The spacious interplay of a hypnotic, though beatless, groove and electronic blips, chirps and sweeps is entrancing to hear. Conjoined tones continue Into the Haze... a dreamier realm of intermingling tones differing in timbres and lengths, swelling and receding gently.
The disc closes on the irradiated, softly turbulent waves of Toward the Mirror (1:53) which ripple in impossibly contorted tones.
