totally didn't just use a crazy text converter for that, nope. I did it all with memorized keyboard shortcuts because I am a legit boss (I didn't)

Macquarie Ridge.

A personal favorite that is the sum of more than its parts. Macquarie Ridge rises to an angelic crescendo before casually meandering off in to the distance all the while filling you with hope and joy.

Pretty good. Four out of five stars.

A really interesting track, actually. I looked up the Biblical reference a couple of years back and IIRC it is essentially about David being "Entertained" as the Bible puts it for several hours as a guest of another figure upon his entry to Mahana'im. Entertainment at the time I would imagine involving Manna and dancing. That is just my personal take on it, though and I am quoting from memory. Won't give it a numerical rating as I am not really sure where I would put it.

10 out of 10 track. Absolutely beautiful to listen to every time. Probably one of my favorite tracks by them period. Hi scores is also a great album, even though it's only an ep lol

It's a nice composition and start to random 35 tracks but I wish it was longer and had a beat, I feel this would be perfect music to have a beat to. 6/10

8/10

The synth and choir sample gives it a aviation feel, Always been bothered by how short the track is.

The beginning of 14A really does sound like something you would play on the ocarina in Zelda. That's always my first impression. When the synths come in, it really becomes quite the interesting collection of sounds. Very upbeat but at the same time it is mysterious. 7/10 rating

A burden I am willing to take.
8.78/10 - What a sneaky little track. Tonally perfect in quite a few ways. Not my kind of atmosphere personally. If I was still into psychedelics and smoking grass I would probably give it a 9-10/10 rating. It seems like every sample was hand crafted and labored over to be an emulation of a certain state of mind. Very well executed.

Poppy Seed (Original remix, not the reprise aka version 2)
As before with Mozart, one should be careful with this as it is one of the only 10/10's for me :mrgreen:

Feeling a light 6/10 on this one. Never been too big on the remixes, but after relistening to this one, I enjoy it. Still prefer their remix of Last Walk Around Mirror Lake. I'm sorry. :P

Yeah, that's right!

8.5 out of Orange, the first version is a 10/Orange. So many things to focus on in this third rendition, it is a very interesting listening experience. The background is very atmospheric. The wailing/screaming sounds around the halfway mark are terrifying. I remember driving across the country with my father, with the Peel Sessions playing at one point during our drive, and he seemed genuinely scared of what he was hearing-- he asked me if we could listen to some oldies, haha. :shock:

Tears From The Compound Eye is a calming song that both feels like the end of a long journey and the beginning of a new one. It simultaneously invokes visions of reaching the end of a long trip, both physical and metaphorically, or seeing the sun rise after a long night of celebrating, perhaps at a camp ground. I envision awakening early in the morning on a plane as it slowly descends to the ground and being memorized by the lights of the city. I see opening my tent to catch the sun peaking out from behind a mountain range. Great end to a great album that will always be my favorite album.

Four stars out of five on an album brimming with five star songs.

In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country.
