Prekop writes for bending, clean guitars and near-samba energies, wincing out vocals that sound smoothed by an uncertain anguish. There's great balance here between sonic indulgence and economics, evident in the mix of pluck and sculpted slush in the strings and guitars.

ReviewsRanked #30 in Cmj's "Top 30 Editorial Picks for 1999.", 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...languid and burned-out, with not much singing, it's another excellent if unnervingly diffident addition to the post-rock academy...", "...Bright, Shimmering Quality...Derived from an Infusion of Jazz..., 3 1/2 Stars (out of 5) - "...an insidiously seductive exercise in chill-out cool; the best tracks brush-up against you like a gentle breeze....quiet storms from quasi-samba beats, swelling strings, cascading melodies and his own whispered vocals...this album shimmers...", 4 stars (out of 5) - "...understated triumph from America's avant-rock scene....flow into a world of mid-West ambience, elegiac acoustic pluckings and Beta-Band-on-ether fluffiness. Unusual name, strange greatness.", "...an evolutionary step for the multi-faceted musician....takes a more organic approach, employing delicate guitar interplay, resonant bass and minimal percussion..."
