"This EP under the Quest banner is the most classically ambient of the Talem batch, 22 minutes of arpeggiating synth flourishes and ear-friendly electronic drones. As with much of de Waards current mode, (A) Quarter) has a very deliberate pace, gliding patiently across its three sections. It opens with some cosmic bloops, drifts into a center section of darker distant feedback peels and an arhythmic thrum, then returns triumphantly to a Berlin-School-flavored finale of blissful analog filigree. If Modelbau is too noisy for you and QST too pop, Quests (A) Quarter is a nicely accessible entry into Frans de Waards music." [HS/VITAL WEEKLY]
