Roger Valença of Monkeybuzz said that "the eleven tracks that add up to just over half an hour compose a delicate and emotional experience, very quiet, which will make fans of the “voice and guitar” genre very happy". [2] Writing for Austin Town Hall, Nathan Lankfork praised the record: "I encourage you to do your own exploration of the record, as each time I spin it, I find something different and new lurking in the background, or even in front of my face. It’s a record that’ll make you lost, looking for the key to its secrets, and in the end, it’s just a nice bit of songwriting". [3]
All tracks are written by Angelo de Augustine.

In the field of recorded music, a hidden track is a song or a piece of audio that has been placed on a CD, audio cassette, LP record, or other recorded medium, in such a way as to avoid detection by the casual listener. In some cases, the piece of music may simply have been left off the track listing, while in other cases, more elaborate methods are used. In rare cases, a 'hidden track' is actually the result of an error that occurred during the mastering stage production of the recorded media. However, since the rise of digital and streaming services such as iTunes and Spotify in the late 2000s and early 2010s, the inclusion of hidden tracks has declined on studio albums.
