It is an accessible and distinctly atmospheric laden variety of the form we get here, and one that probably is closer to the neo-progressive tradition than anything else. We get a liberal amount of careful and elegant synthesizer and keyboard parts here that flow along in a manner not too dissimilar to an artist such as Vangelis. These exist as standalone interludes as well as combined with rhythms, a firm bass and carefully wandering guitars that combine into a flowing and atmospheric laden landscape of the kind that fans of neo-progressive rock will find to be strikingly familiar sounding. Occasionally with darker toned electric guitars added to the bottom end for a more impact-oriented and striking type of arrangement. Janais used to release music under the project name Echo Us, and those familiar with and that enjoy those albums should find themselves right at home with this first production released under the artist name Ethan Janais too. Otherwise this will be an album to seek out by those fond of accessible and atmospheric laden neo-progressive rock. (Olav M. Bjornsen at progressor.net's facebook)Media/Samples
