Review:
For those of you with a little more obscure taste in downtempo and ambient this release is something made for you guys. If you ever liked anything by Boards of Canada, you have to download this. Its one of the few similar artists that i have found. The best part is that its free! Unbelievable?
Blending synth melodies and downtempo beats Hills West creates blissful ambient soundscapes. If you heard this playing somewhere and you didn't know who it was, you will think its Boards of Canada. Thats not easily achieved at all.
I give this album a good solid 4.5/5. It will work for you if you know the BoC style. Else it might take you time to get used to...
To summarize ... Its beautiful and well worth the download.

A thoroughly enjoyable album. Combines a haunting uncertainly with a refreshing hope of change.
No BoC fan should be without this.
