Poignant lyrics contrast the nature and wonder of the music – these gentle layers and the whispered, rising vocal line, all seem at war with the inherent sadness and uncertainty of the writing.
An easy hit, subtle in its striking dismissal of a certain other, melodically and musically entertaining, naturally catchy. The chemistry just works.
Meandering bass, keys and psychedelic layers of immersion – Jorge Mujica takes listeners down a nostalgic, dreamy pathway of expression.
