    Comprised of 18 gorgeous rarities, it doesn’t so much sprawl as build, never flat but instead rising and falling in different and complex shapes. It’s exciting to move from track to track, to hear change and continuity interwoven.

    There are a few stumbles into the synth-pop abyss, but this material feels somehow less galling than examples from Western Europe or the USA, as though the evident excitement in exploring new technology gifts the songs a certain, welcome, naiveté. Even The Forest Hums really kicks into gear when we hit the Kyiv underground of the late ’80s and early ’90s. [Dec 2024, p.52]

    An absolute pleasure of an album. [Nov 2024, p.83]
