“The record is a beguiling journey through dream-like and inviting textures... it is awash with an atmosphere of content and peaceful sincerity. Phillips creates a lively and colorful soundscape that feels as modern as it does ancient. It’s a testament to Phillips’ composition skills that he manages to bring together such a wide range of instruments and techniques in a way that avoids chaos and instead finds a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. A brilliant, accomplished debut, Departure is a magnetic and beautiful album that signals the arrival or a rising new talent - Future Music

There’s a hushed euphoria to the whole record; it’s a dreamy, glistening soundscape where classical guitar, ngoni, kalimba, piano, flutes and more weave in and out of the light, with subtle electronic touches and nods to Balkan-influenced sounds. It is, ultimately, a record that is as much about texture as it is about melody. - Crack Magazine

While Eric Phillips has only been releasing cinematic instrumental soundscapes under the name Kennebec since 2020, his enchanting works have garnered attention and led to a number of incredible collaborations. - KEXP

On his second LP, Kennebec creates soundscapes that melodize the distance, the expanse, the longing and the striving of the ego on the path to the greatest possible form of self-discovery. - HHV Mag
