There is not much to say about Oophoi. The soundscapes that Gianluigi are cool and relaxing, but the "music", if you wish to call it that, is no where near the quality of artists like Steve Roach or Brian Eno, two exemplary ambient artists. It is unfair to compare this music to that of the masters, but being a fan of ambient music, there was really nothing engaging about this album. When listened to in the right setting (you be the judge of that) it can actually be quite interesting. I listened to the album when I was trying to fall asleep, which is not a bad thing, because good ambient music has a calming effect on your mind, but there was nothing but droning textures.

Oophoi's music is quite relaxing and that's about it. There is nothing special here, just your typical ambient artist.
