I greatly admire Steve and all of his music. Like all of his releases, this album is distinctly profound in so many respects. It may cause you to feel things you least expect, and question things you have never questioned before. Sit down, relax, and enjoy this like you would a delicious home-cooked meal. Your appetite will appreciate it. :) Gavin Harmon
I spend a lot of time in my work talking about stories, and talking about different kinds of stories. On this recording (album) Steve takes you (me?) on beautiful, meandering journeys that tell the story of Steve’s conscious thoughts in a moment. Nothing more, nothing less. Many authors say that their stories only really become told as they are written. With only the general direction and some characters being pre-defined. That’s how I view this work. The songs only become written as they are played. And the parts influence the song, as the song influences the parts. And so, the story is told. Steve Yates
Two mind-expanding epics that clock in at 17 minutes apiece and blend drone, ambient, shoegaze, and traditional Indian music. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 12, 2023
