★★★☆☆ = Good!
Sounds like?
polished and well produced electro pop. Has a seriousness and rock aspect to it, an approach like downtempo.
Moods
Sounds like a show for 30 somethings thrown by Spotify and Stella Artois at a 'loft space’ with visible air ducts
Thoughts
The album takes a bit of time to get going but I like it. At times it feels generic and overly polished but tracks are rich and varied enough thanks to the great guests (Holly walker's vocals adding the most).
They seem like they'd be fun live. Just the right amount of positive energy while still maintaining an open jam feel. Reminds me of thievery corporation.
