FADER said: “Octave Minds carry the cinematic spirit of their music over to into its multimedia presentation: the video for the track Symmetry Slice, embedded above, is the first in a series of videos directed by Berlin-based filmmaker Rolf Bremer. Making the most of leaving things out, the clip sets emotional parameters for the viewer, offering a dream-like sequence that suggests formative experience and mortality, but lets us draw our own verbalized narrative from the proceedings.”
