Been listening to this on repeat for the last few days.

The lead single is pretty much TheField doing Daft Punk with Rosin Murphy singing over it.

'Pick Up' Is a bit of an outlier though... some gorgeous deep house, minimal techno and everything else on the album gives it a lovely mixtape vibe. Quite emotional as well in places.



Anyone else been listening?

I was just going to start a thread on this, but then found this one.

This is an exceptional album, and notably it is an album that really works as a whole, which from (originally) a house music producer in the age of streaming individual tracks is a fine thing. There is a real range of emotion in this; sadness, wistfulness, joy, euphoria, but all held together by a warmth and consistency of sound that really make this work. The vocals from various contributors (including the always-great Roisin Murphy) really work as well. A lot of you will have heard Pick Up, but my personal favourite so far is Muddy Funster with Kurt Wagner. It is beautiful.

I discovered this late, but am so glad I found it.
