Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Sheffield electronic duo heavily embraced a surreal, retro-futuristic aesthetic for this eclectic effort, distancing themselves slightly from their earlier trip-hop sound. Utilizing bizarre vintage synthesizers and poetic sampling, the project establishes a whimsical psychedelic atmosphere.
