Compiled by Abel Nagengast, Tako Reyenga and Jamie Tiller as the label's second release, it gathers Call Me from Wind, First Time Ruth Saw the Sea from the 1989 Sub Rosa record, three pieces from The Wind Collector and many unreleased ones. Masin called it a labor of love from the label. AllMusic's Paul Simpson praised its serene, sparse, slow compositions but found the two-hour CD somewhat tiring, and Bandcamp Daily later said it presented him as a kind of Aegean Eno.
