“A record filled with familial abstracts, so textured you can touch it. Maximalist but bare - and wholly considered - every gut-wrench is left in, smoothed out and stronger for it.” - 9/10, Loud & Quiet
“Deeply tranquil… A dreamy world indeed.” - Electronic Sound
“The songs are immaculately crafted” - clash magazine
“Hinako Omori finds herself amidst a darker, more driven soundscape on stillness, softness..., a natural progression from 2022's a journey...” - 4/5, the skinny
“straightforwardly, enchantingly gorgeous”…“one of the most cleansing experiences I've had from any album this year” - sputnik music
