Excerpt: "Generated using analogue synths, tape machines, old cassettes, computer, and toys, the lo-fi ambient style Hamill presents on the album is considerably more sophisticated in conception than what one would expect from one so young.<em> Chagrin</em>'s richly detailed landscapes threaten to recede from view when played at mid-volume but assert themselves more strongly when heard through headphones. Textural sounds are magnified and musical elements are filtered through dense blankets, rendering them corroded and industrial in character. The album's thirteen pieces are typically unassuming, retiring settings that on melodic terms aren't leagues removed from Eno's ambient material... Like B&amp;W photographs of bucolic scenery growing progressively fainter over time, <em>Chagrin</em>'s shimmering vistas resonate as memory traces that often seem on the verge of vanishing."
