"Konstellaatio is Ø's first proper full-length since 2008's Oleva, though Vainio actually started working on it in 2006. That helps explain why it sounds closer to the ambient style of 2005's Kantamoinen (which took five years to produce). It also contextualizes the 2011 record Heijastuva (a touching, entirely beat-less four-tracker that included three older tracks) within the project's catalog. Here, with a little over an hour of music spread across nine tracks, his approach is as subdued and introspective as it's ever been."
