Following their first two full-lengths as , both of which arrived within a year of each other, 's and stretch out a bit and release a vinyl-only EP of two dream-like collage pieces, each of which exceed ten minutes in length. blends calmly rolling synthetic textures with acoustic instruments, eerie voices, and electronic pulses, occasionally lapsing into more song-like moments. It's hard to tell where the release is headed at first, until some electronically altered cymbal swells signal something building up. Eventually it settles into a stately beat along with cinematic pianos, recalling some sort of racing scene, most likely set in slow motion. This seems like it's going to lead to a triumphant climax, but it's delayed a bit, and it ends up being darker than anticipated, with searing yet controlled guitar and distantly whispering voices. The second side picks up in a confident yet somewhat worried state, weaving in nature sounds and confused, possibly disturbed voices. The piece shifts through a few more movements of scattered beats, racing strings, and fragmented voices before ending up calm, soothing, and welcoming, with a cheery (yet vaguely sinister) voice declaring "I'm so glad you came" near the end. Overall, the release is a surreal, unpredictable excursion, and it finds the duo continuing to venture further outside the styles of their main projects, tapping into their subconscious minds in order to create striking dreamscapes. ~ Paul Simpson
