Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Abandon Ship' acts as the debut full-length from the Australian electronic duo, leaning heavily into high-energy complextro and festival-ready house anthems. Known for their satirical bite, the producers mock contemporary EDM tropes even as they expertly execute them. The rollout was slightly chaotic due to iTunes accidentally releasing the project ahead of its scheduled date.
