Vocals are back! After being left off Chances of Rain, vox make a grand re-apparition on Dust. However, musically, this is the barest Halo has ever been: while the debut was hypnotic ambient pop and the preceding record a great all-around techno effort, Dust is a wild ride. One track discards beats to offer jazzelectronic free improv, but is then followed by a streamlined, poppy tune. It makes for a diverse record that nevertheless holds together thanks to Halo's vision - basically idrk why it makes sense despite the wide'n'wild soundscape, but it does make sense.
