The Edges of Everything is a deep and dark soundscape from Farfield, nee Nick 
Webb.  He uses all manner of electronics to mold and manipulate this set.  
The atmospheric ambience is dense.  The eerie samples take it over the edge.
This disc is hard to describe and easy to like.  The synth riffs are catchy; 
the samples are interesting; the orchestral passages are dreamy.  But the 
emotional response is somewhere out in left field.  There is a response.  It 
is just not overt.

The darkness is not scary.  The orchestration is not pastoral.  The 
soundscape is not ambiguous.  It is ambivalent.  This is a masterful sound 
design.  Nick has created a soundscape that goes both ways.  That is a rare 
response! - Jim Brenholts
