    [Rathlin From A Distance] assert his niche in the near-minimalist canon. .... The Liquid Hour is a contrasting group of ambient electronica grooves. [Apr 2025, p.105]

    If "The Liquid Hour" is restless over a longer stretch, its conclusion is nonetheless charming. [Apr 2025, p.39]

    The title track, inspired by views of County Antrim's scenic Rathin Island, is an exercise in crepuscular melancholy that inexorably yields to uplifting chordal beauty - shafts of sunlight dispelling the Gloom. The four tracks that comprise The Liquid Hour, meanwhile, evince Tiersen's skill as an electronic orchestrator. [May 2025, p.91]
