Mar 24, 2015It’s strange and disorientating, idiosyncratic and frequently astonishing, a modern-day psychedelia that owes almost nothing to that genre’s hackneyed conventions and never forgets to temper the sublimity with darkness.
-
UncutMar 24, 2015It's exasperating at first, but the rewards are there for the dedicate dreamer. [Apr 2015, p.77]
-
Mar 27, 2015Here, he makes his own form of dream pop, one that is inspired by stark realities yet filled with hope for a brighter future.
-
Mar 24, 2015Jam City’s message is a positive one. The actual music Dream a Garden is offering, separate from all the pomp of its press releases and strained interviews, are beautiful requiems for our lost sense of love toward shallow brand loyalty; they return to our inclinations for warmth, solidarity, and friendship.

Mar 27, 2015It's an optimistic, romantic and frequently lovely record.

The WireMar 25, 2015Dream A Garden only starts to sound radical when it breaks the bounds of its songforms and an eerie melancholy steals in. [Mar 2015, p.48]
-
Mar 25, 2015Latham's plaintive voice sounds like it's emanating from some romantically ruinous daydream. The effect suits the mood but makes his lyrics difficult to decipher, which is frustrating given his pointed message.
