With ambience as its foundation, the album moves through post-rock, synth, electronic, dream pop, and minimalist influences. Some tracks are gentle and atmospheric, while others feel more modern, dense, and aggressive. The result is a more refined and varied follow-up that shows a clear evolution in production, arrangement, and overall sound.
