Album Notes & Community Reviews

Deliberately abandoning the hushed, acoustic introspection of their previous effort, the iconic electronic duo pivoted sharply toward euphoric, 1980s-inspired pop music. The record acts as an unabashedly optimistic love letter to early Italo-disco and synthwave, trading their usual sultry mysteriousness for bright, major-key melodies and aerobic dancefloor rhythms.
