Normal for a record of its genre.

What did you think of the instrumentation?
Anything with flute makes me swoon, and the variety of percussion was cool. Reminded me a bit of the Velvet Underground.
What did you think of the production?
A bit sketchy at times, but acceptable overall.
Any other thoughts to share?
I haven't really explored much "experimental" music from this era, so this is a nice introduction to that.

8/10
