Jedd: Beaudoin: Helloooo. Where did this come from? Love it. It’s got that (forgive me) Kate Bush/Peter Gabriel thing happening for it while also having its own character. Coming back to this one again and again. [9/10]
Steve Horowitz: There’s something unintentionally funny going on here. The beats move to a faster tempo than the human heart but the emotions come off as stolid and fake. Lanza may be trying to be seductive, but when she goes a capella the façade falls apart. [5/10]
Chad Miller: Extremely catchy all the way through, mostly thanks to the driving percussion and synth-horn arrangement. The vocal melodies compliment the beat as well. Lanza manages to take us to a bunch of interesting sonic places as she effortlessly transitions from section to section, changing the beat and the pace many times. [7/10]
Jessy Lanza‘s new album Oh No releases May 13th via Hyperdub.
