Sky Diver Records: ...A wide-eyed electronic record, chasing after no real genre, preferring a very personal colour and style with whispers of avant-pop 60’s chanson and psyched-out chords, while holding a playful spirit.

Seance Centre: ...Muldrew, recorded on the northern Ontario lake by that name, is the culmination of several years of this collaborative tradition. Resisting their penchant for composition and arrangement, the duo embarked on this project with only an open framework that encouraged restraint. The result is a sparse and improvisational album, hung on enough structure for each song to evoke a distinct, albeit ambiguous mood. Space is paramount and even the most digital elements breathe with the resonance of the room and mingle with creaking floors. The resulting album is steeped in the placid stillness and northern ambience of a lake at dawn, and the emotive expanse of a forest at dusk. Imagine an ECM cottage-series, or Jon Hassell, Hiroshi Yoshimura, and John Martyn scoring a Bela Tarr film set in rural Canada. This is the future-proof music of metropolitan polyglot minds invigorated by nature’s mute refusal to follow a click-track.

Analogical Force: Hello World,Wheel of fate forced me to lose a tiny life before I understood its meanings. 
Thus I needed to be a chaos swallower for the unnamed.
Damn it, demon
