supported by

turbomaup Brilliant. "It all led to this" particulary caught my attention, I loved every bit of its grandiose cinematic touch. Favorite track: it all led to this.

alexmmusic17 Really enjoyed this powerful, surreal and cinematic synth album. So many nice sonic textures! A great emotional journey and when the final notes of the last track “it couldn’t end other way” faded out I immediately had to hear it again. One of the best listens of the year imho. Favorite track: it couldn't end any other way.

Mike Romaniak Love this, so synth-y, so cinematic, so easy to get lost in it.

Jacob Grimm There's much to absorb within the 20 minute duration of this EP.

From mellowed ambient passages to gritty beat-driven synth highlights and even a few grand cinematic flourishes thrown in for good measure, it's hard to deny there's a promising future for Mr. Butineau. Favorite track: no rainbows here, kid.

Sarah El Sherbini This isn't an album you can play in the background while you do other things. Favorite track: it couldn't end any other way.

“you and i both know how this will end. you sure you want to go through with it”
however, there was no choice to make
