“Future Falling” is like listening to the slow evolution of an artist having eased into a new plateau. The Album Leaf has long perfected the background of slow shimmer and hypnotic, repeated, sequenced melody while tones with real physicality of sound carry a melody with a slow blossom of elements that flow and invite you along for a drift into tranquil spaces. You could spend a lot of time sorting out the rich array of elements that create this atmosphere like the ways bell tones are processed, the striking of strings, the layered streams of synth and the orchestration of it all but the mood of slow elevation and acceptance of a peaceful mode of being is the end point of the song as it lets you off with the gentlest of touches at the end of the journey.
