Summer 08

A solitary return to bedroom-pop roots. Wonky basslines, vintage drum machines, and hazy falsetto capture the bittersweet ache of a summer long since passed.

It's like a funky, slightly sad time machine back to the best summer you barely remember.

A restless, nostalgic blend of danceable funk and quiet, late-night loneliness.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The aggressive, scratching DJ cuts and heavy 808 kick that anchor the retro-futurism of Old Skool.
The way the Mick Karn sample in Mick Slow creates a haunting, fretless bass atmosphere that feels suspended in time.
Robyn's guest vocals on Hang Me Out to Dry providing a soaring, emotive counterpoint to the album's otherwise dry production.
