Moments Worth Listening For
The arrival of Guy Garvey's weary, soulful vocals on Lemonsoul providing a human anchor to the skittering electronics
The way 606 builds from a minimalist rhythmic pulse into a lush, layered synth landscape
The deep, dub-influenced bass weight that anchors the otherwise ethereal Slowboat
