The Brooklyn duo expanded their signature sound on this release by weaving multi-layered, harmonized electric guitars over infectious hip-hop beats. Its entirely instrumental format relies on strong melodic hooks that blur the lines between indie rock and electronic dance music. The album became highly influential in late-2000s commercial and alternative media sync licensing.
