"this album, recorded between the Tunefork studio in Beirut and Tohme's home in the Lebanese mountains, is a perfect melting pot of rural, urban, traditional and innovative."

"This is a heavy album, but what would you expect from a recording utilising Tunefork Studios in Beirut as a conduit to remotely unite these artists during the Israeli aggression/response (delete as applicable)"

"Far-out funkiness and some cosmic bump is the order of the day with "scampi strut" with Varian setting the keyboard controls for the heart of the sun"

“Last Night’s Dub” sees another heavy riddim test your speakers, and trust me this album won’t be kind to lower quality hi-fi gear

"despite my natural inclination towards the nonabrasive, palliative end of the ambient spectrum this is something of a Thai massage, a mildly unsettling but ultimately relaxing affair, and I like it a lot."

there’s a distinctly lounge music vibe running throughout, albeit a cosmic kitsch one

a natural foil to the minimal instrumentation and processed sounds that are artfully collaged into detailed soundscapes
