Gentoo‘s debut can be seen as the study of an infinite moment. At least one song, “A Million Coins,” takes inspiration from Zen poetry, setting the album‘s meditative mood. Ethereal as Arovane, Gentoo‘s work is also of the earth. Synth tones on “Noumena” and “Quip” meander like a flute and koto, while the title track heralds a thunderstorm with electrical sparks and the buzz of frogs. “Creek” is a recollection of leaving the woods for the world, amid the claustrophobic sound of being lost inside both. Like nature‘s grandeur, Gentoo‘s sometimes heavy-handed flourishes can be overwhelming. It‘s the individual details-and the ways he describes them through sound-that are singularly beautiful.
