You Know What It's Like

The Berlin-based Australian musician crafts a remarkably sparse, ghostly debut album heavily indebted to 1980s DIY post-punk and dub. The record relies on plodding, lethargic basslines, minimalist electronic percussion, and her intensely detached, whispered vocals to create a suffocatingly lonely atmosphere. It was widely celebrated within the underground as a masterclass in deeply atmospheric, lo-fi minimalism.
