Moments Worth Listening For
The crisp, high-pitched synth lead on 'The West Is Back' that signals a return to the classic 213 sound.
The smooth transition into the melodic, R&B-infused hook of 'Swagger Rich' that balances the harder verses.
The heavy, rhythmic bounce of 'Skate, Skate' that captures the specific energy of a roller rink floor.
