#2416 Seefeel - Quique

Chiming, pretty near-ambient tones with cooing over top - Quique sounds suspiciously like Aphex Twin (Xtal) and Orbital (Halcyon and On and On) at times. But it's saved by that rhythm section. That rolling, dubby bass, those elliptical drums; they lend a loping, sleepy trip-hop lull that blurs the lines between rock and electronic and sublines besides.

IDM tamed // post-rock domesticated, a hybrid that's hypnotic, pretty, and ready to make you bob your head in the subtlest way possible 3.5/5
