I really hope that one day people will catch on to how truly phenomenal this album is. These are some serious compositions. It is stunning from beginning to end, so pointing out a highlight seems redundant, but I am always in awe of how Amime effects me, it makes me think it surpasses the realm of just music. This album has become my personal soundtrack to reading YKK, I couldn't think of a more perfect pairing, just like Blade Runner. I like to imagine Sam leGend read it while writing BlueBlue rhyscook

I love this album! It helps me imagine the micro and macrocosms in the earth and in the soil and in space! a multi-scalar, multi sensory experience of ecosystems across time and space. Warm golden light, slow crystal growth over eons, geological forces and deep time, walking through woods, looking at plants and the smell of petrichor (the earthy scent produced when rain falls on dry soil) jen-du-chatsein

Just discovered Sam Wilkes and some of his work and bass playing, and arrived to this record. It reminds me a lot to John Hassell/Eno era a bit more jazzy, and all the ambient music from the 80’s. I love it! Santi Umbert
