Review by Pio Alfonso Reyes Lopez

Mason Bates' album Mothership is a captivating blend of classical and electronic music that takes the listener on a journey through space and time. The album features a range of tracks that showcase Bates' unique talent for merging traditional orchestral arrangements with modern digital soundscapes.

The opening track, "Mothership," sets the tone for the album with its pulsing electronic beat and soaring strings. The track builds to a crescendo before dropping into a dreamy, ethereal section that evokes images of floating through space.

Other standout tracks include "Warehouse Medicine," which features a driving rhythm and haunting vocals, and "The B-Sides," a more introspective piece that showcases Bates' skill at crafting intricate textures and melodies.
