I have been looking forward to this for a while. A new Fennesz album is something to be enjoyed slowly. I’ve barely listened to it once so far and already I can say that it has great range. There’s some deeply moving material in there and I’ve enjoyed the album. Perhaps not as much as Black Sea, which is a personal favourite, but it’s early so far and I need to let this album settle and get used to it.
One thing that it reminds me, is that listening takes time, requires depth, concentration and perseverance. It doesn’t come quickly, but the wait, the effort, is always worth it. Especially with Fennesz.
