Artwork[edit]
The album art has been created by a Romanian artist Matei Apostolescu [1] in
response to a request for "organic and optimistic" image with "Soviet-era kids and
airplanes".[2]

Reception[edit]
SputnikMusic gave the album a score of 4 out of 5, calling it "an album for the
dreamers", praising it for the "flight into the upper stratosphere" through an
"unbelievable landscapes blotted with fluffy clouds and wide blue skies", noting "near
flawless melding of picturesque lucidity and tactile production lush with analogue
textures and deep, shapely tones".[3]
RateYourMusic gives the album 3.51 out of 5 with listeners being pleased with the
album overall, commenting on the relaxing organic feel of the music, which crosses
from psybient to dub. At the same time, the listeners consider "The Queen of All
Everything" the highlight of the album, after which the album weakens and becomes
formulaic.[4]
Other listeners, while praising the album for distancing itself from less inventive psy-
dub clichés, still could not find anything that stands out of other psy-chill / psy-dub /
ambient dub productions.[5]
Those, for whom Skylon is the only Ott's album they listened to, rate it more
favorably, noting that even when the album lacks in inventiveness, it more than
makes up for in musicianship and polished production. [6]
