"...a compilation album that showcases Bearsuit Records as a label dealing in the strange and beautiful, an eclectic collection of artists and music that whilst often veering toward the surreal, are always anchored in the sublime." [uk music search]
*
"It’s fair to say that all the tracks on here are nothing short of sparkling, scintillating and cerebral...
the quality of the selection is outstanding – the artists on here are not afraid to experiment and to take the musical format of their choice to new territories" [Heathen Harvest]
*
"Experimental leftfield electronic ambience from artists the world over, Open your mind people! This is one of the most offbeat albums I've ever been asked to consider…The atmospheric output is based around diverse rhythms, uses electro pop, lullabies, folk-rock and blues…"
[subba-cultcha.com]
*
"This compilation works like an alternative radio: experimental pop tunes that are throughout pleasant to hear, never too long or alienated. Nicely coherent, even when it is diverse…"
[Vital Weekly]
*
"The quality level is high… with the set rich in variety—electropop, bedroom lullabies, and grungy folk-rock are just three of the styles on display—and sequenced judiciously.
…contains a healthy share of memorable moments."
[Textura]
*
"It’s a weird, melodic-oriented sampler, give it a try for they may have discovered the heirs of Plone, or Mum or the new answer to Hood and Postal Service among their ranks..." [Chain D.L.K]
*
"Featuring a selection of artists from around the world, it might well make an interesting addition to your collection.
As a compilation, this release actually works… it deserves to find a wider audience than it probably will."
[Bluesbunny]
*
"a strange and enigmatic cd..."
[Subcity Radio]
*
"There’s enough quality here to warrant close attention. Among the many highlights are the epic soundscapes of Limbic Somnus and the plaintive Mum-esque melodies of Linda Bjalla, but pretty much everything here is at least worth a listen."
