 | | The album concludes with "Undercurrent in Castevoli" and this cut features still more field recordings of water sounds (and by now you should realize that unless you find the sound of water flowing and dripping at least somewhat appealing, you won't enjoy this disc). |
 | | The majority of this album, however, is pure beatless ambience, with highlight tracks like "Awaken Spirits" and "Floating Energies" consisting of multi-layered drones and field recordings (crickets, water, and various other environmental soundscapes), creating a contemplative listening space. |
 | | Opium doesn't list the source of his recordings, but it is noted that Alio Die's are from wide-ranging, exotic locales such as Thailand, Koh Pee Pee (this must be an answer to a trivia question somewhere), and Lunigiana, Italy. |
