"Nonetheless, this is indeed the first album to feature both Scott & Ernesto Rodrigues, and various intriguing textures are explored in an ample & multi-track (as seems typical of Scott) album lasting over an hour - the latter even discounting the several minutes of silence occupying the second half of the final track.... (And one cannot always be sure what is intended or what is a production glitch in some of these cases....) There is a bit of "spaciness" from the synth at times, but also a variety of combinations from aggressive to subtle (including some quiet vocal sampling & "radio" static that weren't immediately apparent), suggesting many future possibilities.
