Another laid back lo-fi electro synth-pop revival record. Very similar to Washed Out, but w/ a greater 80s influence. RIYL: Washed Out, New Order, Notwist.
01. Instrumental intro, tone-setter (0:25)
02.**** Woozy twilight making-out-on-the-beach groove. Sublime. (4:03)
03.*** Terrific hypnot-pop instrumental (1:44)
04.*** Upbeat, almost an instrumental but for a few spare verses. (3:34)
05. Brief spacey instrumental (0:48)
06. Slower, less dancey electro-pop ballad. (3:21)
07. Slightly more traditional noise-pop structure (2:21)
08. 80s synth-pop slow jam a la Kajagoogoo (3:08)
09.** Infectious New Order beat w/ some less captivating vox. (4:06)
10.** Like some mid-period Cure pop. (3:27)
11. Instrumental (0:57)
12. Newer, harder synth beat, like a less catchy Justice or Daft Punk (2:52)
