    A very chilled album packed with great songs. It's a great album to listen to as you study, relax, or chilling. The album has very great songs such as downfall, backwater, dissolve, too fast and not like them. It's most definitely one of the top electronic albums of the year. Overall, the songs on the album are excellent.

    an amazing debut. The production is so interesting and the vocals fit perfectly. Reminds me of Made in Heights' second album in a way. The only negative is at times he production swallowed up the lyrics

    The pervasive dreaminess and charm ultimately results in an absorbing debut album.

    The duo clearly have good stories, but need to expand the range of emotions they use to tell them.

    Backwater being their most complete and mature release to date, the band’s creative dynamic remains organic and allows them to adjust themselves to a rhythm of their choosing, as they evolve as musicians and as a two-piece band with a wide range of possibilities.
