Sambanova

PNAU

A dusty, sample-heavy blend of acid jazz and deep house. Far removed from their later pop anthems, this is a nocturnal masterclass in atmospheric lounge.

1999 · WEA Japan

A sophisticated and hazy nocturnal drift that feels both nostalgic and deeply relaxing.

Moments Worth Listening For
The hypnotic integration of the mellotron's ghostly flute patches against a steady downtempo breakbeat on track 2
The way the title track dissolves into a lush, bossa-nova-inflected haze of percussion and filtered synths
The ten-minute ambient drift of the final track that slowly strips away its rhythm until only a pulsing hum remains
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
