Album Notes & Community Reviews
Returning to a more upbeat, dancefloor-oriented sound after the introspective leanings of their previous release, the Hartnoll brothers heavily emphasized driving breakbeats and lush synthesizers. 'The Middle of Nowhere' skillfully balances dense, progressive club tracks with moments of quirky, vocal-sampling warmth.
