FCC clean

*1. Point Dume (4.02)- aerial, delicate female vocals, recalls My Bloody Valentine
*2. Never Go Away (7.40)- slow-tempo, drifting comedowns, love buzz, fuzzed guitar walls
3. Chime(4.46)- lackadaisical, slow-mid tempo, guitar drenched in fuzzed out reverb
4. Wildflowers (6.20)- moody, gloomy, fuzzy fuzzy, sudden distorted guitar blast at 4:12
*5. Written (4.59)- somewhat aggressive guitar sounds, brightest track, vintage style, summer memory, sounds like Drive’s soundtrack A Real Hero as a whole
6. Tiny Ship (5.29)- woozy woozy, atmospheric sounds, hypnotic, reverb vocals, blasted guitar violence at 3:40
*7. Here (4.31)- brighter song than the last one, oceanic
*8. This (5.08)- slow/mid-tempo, delicate, scorched beauty
9. Chime (Apples to Earth Remix) (5.33)- enchanting night, gloomy
10. Never Go Away (Nikki Gunz Remix) (4.34)- more techno
