Album Notes & Community Reviews
Emerging from a period of severe illness for Ben Watt, 'Amplified Heart' is an intimate, largely acoustic reflection on vulnerability and resilience. While rooted in sophisticated folk-pop, the inclusion of the Todd Terry remix of "Missing" unexpectedly transformed the duo into global dance floor staples, signaling a permanent electronic shift in their subsequent output.
