Reception
Allmusic music critic Stephen Eddins wrote "The pastel-colored title track, "The Yelm Sessions", and the pop-sounding Latin dance "Enter the Garden" are lovely, but are a far cry from the dark power characteristic of his most exciting work. The fourth track, though, "Fire in Wind", for orchestra, keyboards, guitar, electric bass, and percussion, inhabits the fearsome soundworld of Kang's more unsettling work, and most of the remaining pieces lead the listener through a number of dark, disturbing places."
