A pretty disappointing album when I come to think about it, which is a damn shame. I really wanted to like this new record of Gold Panda's, but it'a honestly too puzzling to me for that, just because so little of this album has stuck with me. the second song could be in an Adidas commercial or something, probably, but uh, that's kind of all I could tell you. Anyways, I guess what I'm realizing is that Gold Panda has, unfortunately, always disappointed me. But that fact also has a lot to do with personal tastes, of course, Gold Panda doesn't want to write the music I've always wanted him to write. And that's cool! His music clearly makes a lot of people happy. A friend of mine loves this record and we agree to disagree, which means this album is at least worth talking about. So, yeah, at least listen to "Halyard"! It's a really pretty tune.

I don't think it's anything I haven't heard before from the likes of the man himself, but his playful style of glitch-hop and downtempo is still riding high on this new record. It goes without saying that "In My Car" is the correct answer to the question "where is this song best played?", and that "Song For A Dead Friend" is strange in its initially indifferent but subtly melancholy sound. Always interested in Japanese culture, the album also shows the fruits of his time spent in Japan over the past year, using many East Asian instruments in his melodies and sample work. This of course juxtaposes well with the catchiness and danceability of the majority of the album. And, as stated before, though it's not really anything new, it's still charming enough to get by on its own merits, especially when songs like "Pink And Green" and "Time Eater" pepper it.
