Never inching even remotely close to any form of grandiosity or succumbing to helpful pick-me-up boosts, this is straight-up late-night mood-pop that could easily transform into an assortment of dance floor bangers if not for the hushed house beats and subdued-bordering-on-completely-detached vocals. Its restraint can get repetitive - three of the four instrumentals are blatantly voiceless mimicries of the non-instrumentals - but if said restraint stands strong and continuously offers up captivating slices of alienated coherence, I'd say that's fair-enough restitution.
