From the son of Bobby McFerrin comes a chill, dreamy album perfect for a lazy afternoon. This album is a tasty treat, with an electronic crust, downtempo custard, and a sweet, bright dollop of swirling euphoria.

Picks: 4, 6, 2, 10
01 "Postpartum" Jazzy beats combined with drowsy bass and excited keyboard.
02 "Degrees of Light" Trip-hop vibes. XXYYXX meets Tycho. Whispy yet sharp synths support a big bassline.
03 "The Antidote" This is the cure to your afternoon blues. Sit back and chill! Female rap+vocal loops.
04 "Florasia" Quiet, crooning male vocals. Suddenly... "BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Sick bass- take this to 11!
05 "4 Am" Not by Kaskade. In fact, completely different. Crazy drumline + bass guitar. Disjointed yet cohesive instrumental ramblings. Short!
06 "Stepps" WWWWWWWWRRRNNNNN WRRRNNN. Like 4's bass! Clicks, pops, and dreamy trip-hop.
07 "Already There" Jazz influences on top of experimental soundscape.
08 "Decisions" Emily King does the vocals on this track! HUGE, bouncing bass. Earthy. Raw. Simple.
09 "Blind Aesthetics" Taking a riverboat through a shimmering cave.
10 "Place in My Heart" Let's pick up a little (~114BPM)! Bright female vocals cut through the pulsing low-end.
11 "Invisible/Visible" Okawari meets 2009 Nujabes. Ambient backing with birdcalls and jazzy beats.
12 "Pls Dnt Lstn" Aggressive, emotional. Snappy jazz rhythms with trip-hop undertones.
