"What I would like to call it is organic music; natural-blending soundscapes, ambient music without any electronics, and a style that would perfectly fit into a wide range of cinematic scenes, from romantic to film noir."
SOUNDBLAB 10/10
"The collaboration benefits both sides. Grimes again has a basket in which to carry her notes. Astrïd has the icing for their cake. Through the Sparkle reflects the glow of an inspired pairing. Soft sparks fly, reflect their scenery, and settle onto a reflective floor."
A CLOSER LISTEN
"Through the Sparkle balances shimmering, softly shining upliftingless with shifting shadows. It’s an easy yet rich listening experience which brings with it a sense of the way in which music can enrich the soul."
