wilson-c Wonderful album and great sounding. The extended live tracks in my view work so well and a preference over the shorter tracks on prior studio albums. Favorite track: The Drums.

Tim Hughes Incredible. The skill of each member is clearly on display here but the palpable feeling of joy it conveys is what really makes it for me!

mattgraupman Some painters build up their pieces by using dozens and dozens of thin, nearly imperceptibly different layers of paint, until they've created a work of art that's incredibly deep and rich. That's what SML have done with "Spontaneous Music Live." Musically, of course. Each little addition or subtraction pays off beautifully as these tracks twist and morph and blossom. Amazing work. Favorite track: Roundabouts.

yakuzadog14 I almost shouted "that was live?!?!?" when I heard the crowd applause at the end of Daves. I can't overstate how precise these guys are despite having no composed material. Everything is performed flawlessly yet the music is far from sterile or unimaginative. The band will often explore a groove, but the contours of that groove change as the band makes their way through it. Records don't often leave me struggling to come up with any analogues the way this one has. AOTY contender. Favorite track: Daves.

chicken egg: O This is that one really cool album that your older brother listens to. Favorite track: Moving Walkway.

auroraboreal one of the best albums I've ever listened to. truly innovative!

ALAIN Cette musique se passe de commentaire tant elle est extraordinaire ! Engagée !
Ayant acheté ce disque (version Cd sur Bandcamp) , je suis heureux de pouvoir enfin placer ce vinyle sur la platine,( le CD, lui, n'est jamais arrivé ici malgré mes rappels !
Merci de l'avoir remis en circulation.
Good.

JackG Emily A. Sprague is an outstanding ambient artist. I listen to all of their works 100's of times. Their music has great relistening value. These tracks reward patience as they reveal their secrets very slowly. It's minimalistic but detailed on close inspection. In other words, ambient perfection. Favorite track: Hokkaido.

matthew mckinnon Just lovely. There's a lot of 'this sort of thing' out there, but when it connects it feels very special. Emily's stuff feels organic and heartfelt and I keep coming back to it.

blondeserge Enter the mind palace Favorite track: Nagoya.

Max Herzog Splendid. Timeless. Mesmerizing!
Favorite track: Late Autumn.

Brendan Corey Benson Everyone involved are heroes. Thank you.

smoore_2001 This album transports you so fully to a place almost outside of time. Transcendant yet tranquil. Favorite track: Late Autumn.
