Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive, distorted synth riff on the title track that mimics a panic attack turning into a release.
The way the 'Down' sample loops with a relentless, mechanical funk that feels both vintage and futuristic.
The heartbreakingly clear falsetto delivery on 'Broken' that contrasts with the driving, rhythmic production.
