Reckon this has been my favourite of your recent ambient stuff. Those droning pads are really cool. Wasn't expecting that wee Hammond organ there though - reminds me of something Blur did quite a bit, throwing in these little incongruous bits of music, although obviously here, it's more than just a "bit". All starts getting a bit weird with that start-stop bass synth. Yeah, interesting sound palette all-round. Mix felt a little wonky on the first half of the track: felt the pads could be louder at least relative to that metallic / flanged percussive thing - or maybe that could just be lowered a bit. Overall structure makes a bit more sense too on second listen. Fairly subtle progression I suppose. Yeah, good work Henry!
