Opener ‘My First’ never quite breaks into a fully fledged groove, teasing with analogue synth bass, blues guitar, clipped spoken word and bongo loops. It’s a formula repeated across the album, with the producers taking the surprising decision to work from a limited—but highly effective—palette of instruments. It’s deceptively simple, with repetitive motifs, low-slung bass and judicious use of delay.
The sound of the morning after the night before.
