Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive polyrhythmic percussion break in Azimba that shifts the album toward a global dance sound.
The way the bassline in Leila locks in with the palm-muted guitar for a pure 1980s funk strut.
The shimmering synth wash that opens Sign of the Times, immediately setting a high-gloss nostalgic tone.
