Nice---listening now. Enjoying it very much. It has your characteristic great production quality, and the composition has your characteristic
"trapped in a gnarly 11-dimensional melting thornbush" quality. Or, I could say, it sounds like this looks:

The comparison with the picture sort of hits, indeed!
As for the music, I have to say that, to me, it sounds a little
"over-produced" - there is too much going on. (Apparently my brain is
too limited for 11 dimensions...) Maybe it would be good to have less
effects on the acoustic instruments, so the contrast between them and
the electronic stuff comes out clearer... Just my unqualified opinion.
