Review 1:
Digging deeper into Amir's back catalog reveals more gems... timearrow enters on darkly mysterious vapors, textural activities and throbbing tribal drums which thunder through the organic mistiness. Strangely, a crazed xylophonist seems to dwell at the entryway to the murky didge-laced depths of black hole(8:26), switching to percussion thankfully. The chiming sequences of killing time (psalm 90) are soon pepped up by a perkier almost-dancefloor rhythm. Those trancey waves of energy are counterbalanced by the simple, lushly layered ebb-and-flow of cushier memory of lost dimension whose beats are comparatively few and far between... mmmm, seductive! With glacial progress, everything you see is already past (17:14) sloowly fades into earshot, the low breezes bring distant percussion closer, like approaching thunder. Again, a mixture of Roach/Obmana tribalisms and gorgeous shapelessness. An A-.

Review 2:
When I first got this, it didn't leave the CD player for several days. Baghiri has always been a self-admitted Steve Roach emulator, but on Time he breaks free with fresh ideas. Gradually drifts from light sequencer pieces to quieter, ambient sound-worlds, perfect for repeat listenings. Gets my highest recommendation.
