Review perspective. Original criticism by Andrew Ryce / Pitchfork.

Pitchfork critic Andrew Ryce reviewed Eris Drew and Octo Octa’s first collaborative full-length as Alchemical Sisters on October 22. His account describes an album created in the duo’s New Hampshire home using synthesizers, acoustic instruments and material drawn from their record collections. Ryce places the music in conversation with the expansive dance productions of the 1990s, discussing how the record joins personal experience with that musical history. The review is a useful starting point for listeners following either producer into a shared project. This is an attributed overview of Ryce’s published criticism, with no new Soundwave numerical rating. The source contains his complete assessment.
