slow noche A beautifully immersive album of seriously catchy synthpop. The layers of production detail rewards repeat listens, it's equally moody and danceable and his lyrics are a revelation. Fans of M83, Panda Bear, Wild Nothing, Bear in Heaven will all find much to dive into here. Highly recommended!

Vinty 05:43
It’s been so long since I’ve felt that beat The pounding of my heart as I try to speak Walk with me in colors, speak to me in song. You are all I ask for. I want to fall. I’m howling at the dark, I hear no reply. I know there’s a light, it just escapes my view. So walk with me in colors, speak to me in song. You are all I ask for. I want to fall in love. Oh universe, give me a sign that I’m doing something right. Oh morning dew, talk to me more about me and you. Oh budding flower, can you give me the hour? Oh restless wave, will you take my breath away? Oh rays of dawn, show to me your summer fawn Oh leaves of green, speak to me of what you mean You’re sitting there, falling backwards in your chair. You crack a smile. Can’t we stay here a while? Oh universe, give me a sign that I’m doing something right. Oh universe, give me a sign. Give me a sign. Oh universe, give me a sign that I’m doing something right. Oh universe, give me a sign. Give me a sign.

Ghost of Future, I feel your magnetism drawing me Percussive waves in my bones Ghost of Future, I can’t shake, I can’t move I’m under a spell… Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me Give me something, something to hold to, something I can miss Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me So many things that were unsaid as we danced around Ghost of Future, I can’t escape the pull of your gravity No matter how hard I try Ghost of Future, I don’t know what it is, There’s something about her… Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me Give me something, something to hold to, something I can miss Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me So many things that were unsaid as we danced around Sometimes we fade…

Fake 04:52
I think I might be faking it, I think I might be substituting for ya And what if I am? Isn’t that alright? I think I might be faking it, I think I might be putting on an act Am I any good? Do I convince myself? How can we expect not to change one bit? We are humans and humans love to grow Still every time I think of you, of you baby, oh it feels so good You still feel so good I think I might be faking it, I think I might be substituting for ya And what if I am? Isn’t that alright? I think I might be faking it, I think I might be putting on an act Am I any good? Do I convince myself? Sometimes I wish we could talk for hours Sometimes life is like taking showers Every time I think I’m clean of you, baby You get back on me. You get back on me girl. I think I might be faking it, I think I might be substituting for ya And what if I am? Isn’t that alright? I think I might be faking it, I think I might be putting on an act Am I any good? Do I convince myself? I think we might be faking it, I think we might be substituting for us And what if we are? Isn’t that alright? I think we might be faking it. I think we might be putting on a show. Are we any good? Do we convince ourselves?

Gemini 00:39
I'm inhuman. I never meant to make you feel this way. I'm the bad guy, Thinking of what could have been. You're a good thing. Why did I have to fuck it up? Was it my birth sign? Am I just a Gemini?

Far 04:50
Seems like I’m here again Guess I am losing touch It’s been far too long, far too long to feel this way In your house, in your house I will stay. One last time, one last time I was yours One last look, one last look you were mine In a glimpse of the light, I was lost to the night If I should stay with you, find me under, swimming blue. Seems like I went too far Don’t know where you are I have looked around, looked around and lost myself Clarity, clarity for someone else One last time, one last time I was yours One last look, one last look you were mine In a glimpse of the light, I was lost to the night If I should stay with you, find me under, swimming blue.

Tower 05:47
You know it broke my heart to hear You won’t let anyone near. Build your tower, wage your war. Just remember what it’s for. She’s got to let go, let go to live She’s got to let go, let go to live I believe we can overcome anything, Search in the heart of the matter. Going down that dark 'n winding road, Shine a different light. I heard you’re sealing up your life You know you can’t hide from the knife Rebuild your tower, but give it legs. Feet to stand on, to walk away She’s got to let go, let go to live She’s got to let go, let go to live I believe we can overcome anything, Search in the heart of the matter. Going down that dark 'n winding road, Shine a different light. Speak to me softly as I’m falling. Speak to me softly as I hit the ground. She’s got to let go, let go to live She’s got to let go, let go to live I believe we can overcome anything, Search in the heart of the matter. Going down that dark 'n winding road, Shine a different light.

New Groove 04:55
I found a new groove I found a new way Like a strawberry shake without the taste It’s my day-to-day Life in the mundane Drowning in this catatonic state Let’s be cars and drive away From this, I know we can escape Though I must admit In this routine, it’s easy to forget. This is how we deal Grooving at every meal Dancing on our heels, we’re locked inside As long as I move, I think I’m alive So I keep the motion, keep the motion. Let’s be cars and drive away From this, I know we can escape Though I must admit In this routine, it’s easy to forget. Let’s be birds and fly away With wings of gold, we can resist You go north and I’ll go south It just may be better to forget.

Salt 03:36
You taste like salt You taste like salt You taste like salt You taste like salt You asked me if I was gay, I had to promise I was not gay, That I was not gay. I guess you must have been betrayed, You must have been betrayed, By curious eyes. It seems to me there must be something wrong You’re closing down the bar for much too long You taste like salt… You’re dancing standing still. You know you’re dancing standing still, And you don’t know why. You move my hands around. You know you move my hands around, And you don’t ask why You taste like salt You taste like salt You taste like salt You taste like salt It seems to me there must be something wrong You’re closing down the bar for much too long You taste like salt…
