'Reflections from a Sacred Pool', The third of twelve EPs has four tracks, each with its own with distinct sound.
'In a Shroud made of Silk' takes you on an acoustic guitar day dream with a gentle synth melody warbling across the stereo field.
'In the Distance there was Starfall' is a contrast of lazy tones that almost become a melody on top of a percussion jam that is never quite the same in any bar.
'And Midnight Flirted with the Light' is a zither sample fed through a granulator that chops up the sounds into tastefully musically interesting bits. Bassy synth rumbles and and chords take you far away and high up into some imagined Himalaya.
'Reflections from a Sacred Pool' is a gentle send-off. Evolving melodies and chords sliced and left to hang in the air. Electric piano and pseudo string sounds become your lullaby.
