The nine tracks and sixty four minutes worth of lush and blooming ambient guitar texturing  was recorded between 1997 and 1999, and this is the first time these recordings have been official released. Each track here is a rich, glowing and gently swirling and ebbing collection of: harmonic drone textures, lush guitar shimmers and warming ambience.  On the first few plays through the album I was very much reminded of Stars of the Lids lush yet slightly melancholic guitar drone grandeur, but over more recent plays I can hear Cortez own sonic personality &  harmonic/ atmospheric identity coming out more & more. The  nine tracks  run between just over the two and a half minute mark to just under the fifteen minute mark piece, and each track finds Cortez gently developing and nurturing his guitar to build great, shifting and arching sonic  landscapes of harmonic richness, emotional felt ambience and atmospheric grace.

All in all this is a very rewarding and consistent collection of harmonic and atmospheric rich ambient guitar texturing that really deservers a place up there with the best of what this genre has to offer.
