"If you’re a long-term fan of one or more of the participating groups or of modern acid rock in general, you won’t need much convincing to add this gem to your collection. But even if you’re completely unfamiliar with this whole scene, yet interested in dipping your toes into the wide world of spaced-out guitar music, I would highly recommend this idealized ISS homage as a gateway experience to the genre."

The third album from Brussels musician Juanita uses haunting ambient/electronic songs to reflect a world in turmoil. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2021
A gentle howl, the mellow folky keys at times evoke a hurdy-gurdy (unless there is one?), weaving labyrinthine paths of folk into the hypnotic krauty soundscape, underpinned by the loose, reverberant patterns of the drums.Overall this is a really dynamic and memorable new take on the psych/kraut genre.
