  1. Impressively impressionistic, New Clouds is a rare mix of restful and engaging, and a significant step forward for Forkner.
  2. New Clouds is as good a record as any to soundtrack disconnection from deep thought.
  3. If you're able to view it through that lens, then New Clouds has much to offer as an unscripted, decidedly un-pop kind of album: mood music and drug music, yes, but more than that, the uncompromising work of a dude making sounds strictly on his own terms.
