The cover painting with simple rolling lines and delicate pastel colours by Migiwa "Miggy" Shimizu is a guessed graphical abstract of the sound by Hyogo-based Hakobune aka Takahiro Yorifuji, whose airy sound in this pretty (very limited) release issued by Rural Colours, sister label of Hibernate, lends itself to blissful moments of intimate contemplation. Mild and relaxed atmospheres, based on over-stretched guitar sounds with electronic rising agents, graceful trembling, gradually acquires a virginal whiteness: the two parts of both tracks "All The Other Hearts I Know" and "Blackland Prairie" (a little more exstatic than the first movement) seems to follow the same progression as the waves of the first parts become brighter in the second ones and its intrinsic corale-like facet sounds like glimmering and enshrouding, so that it seems the sonic waves gush over a ravishment in front of a dramatic scenery. The in-between entrancing "Interlude", which acts a divide between the two parts of the two tracks of the record, sounds like an imaginary reprise of Burial's "Forgive" or "Endorphin" by Stars of The Lid. A lovely record to make listener's thoughts fluffier, which is going to make your mind float!
