As we ease ourselves into the summer months, music like this is going to feel more relevant, regardless of when it has been released. It’s an optimistic four tracker, and there’s break beats in there, although not everything relies on their presence. ‘Nowhere But Here’, ‘Cosmic Spring’ and ‘Missing You’ do though. The former is a pacey expansive romp, while the two other tracks, although not as lively, draw on similar, tropes to wrap themselves into your consciousness. ‘Delay Talk’ is my favourite tune, reminding me a little of FSOL’S ‘Pulse State’ in tempo and mood.
