Why it's here

Beyond Records' peak; Birmingham ambient's final statement

By Freefloater, the Higher Intelligence Agency no longer need to prove how much detail ambient techno can hold. The arrangements are spare, settled and almost casual, with melody carrying more of the weight. It sounds like a group comfortable enough to stop short of finishing the edges.
