Though differing in approach and execution, the common thread between all of these tracks is a feeling of light, or in a more exact sense "lighting". Each track is in a way, a stage set, a background in which characters and actions are suggested rather than explicitly featured. Listening with this mindset, a range of "lighting" can be noticed in each track, from the alienating dim streetlights of "Rainstorm", the warm and gentle sadness of "Dessido", the bright and synthetic light of "Island" and "Sweet Birds". "Sunset" and "Whose Name" are created from multi-tracked acoustic guitar lines and represent morning and evening light respectively.
The cover art it self also reflects the idea of light, as being shone from different directions, the source of which not being revealed, only it's pathway showing.
