A computer keyboard clacks in an empty room, opening a door to a world of dust-mote folk and slow-motion hip-hop. Acoustic guitar strings buzz against the frets while harp samples loop like old film reels. It feels like sitting on a sun-warmed wooden floor in mid-afternoon, surrounded by the quiet hum of household electronics. This record took digital production out of the cold, dark club and let it breathe in the messy, natural light of a living room.
