She writes that the mini-album explores the beats of a cool, imaginary urban landscape but comes in and out of focus through a combination of tempo changes, innovative sounds and catchy yet somehow forgettable hooks.

But it comes in and out of focus through a combination of tempo changes, innovative sounds and catchy yet somehow forgettable hooks.for the ages: one second you get into it with both feet, but the minute song’s over, it’s gone into musical ether.
