Pros:
Delight layering, slipping (at times) brass, vocal samples and wild digital effects underneath sweeping, cinematic synths
Bass lines are consistently emphasised and momentum-carrying
Deeply personal, intimate and heartfelt lyrics, evolving across various stories well
Cons:
Often disappointingly flat and plodding, possibly due to the generic and uninspired percussion
Spoken word delivery is suitable but reeks of missed melodic potential
Can meander in basic disco grooves at times, losing its key strengths in atmosphere and narrative when it does
Best: Late Arcades
Worst: The Carousel
6/10 Just didn't click with me
