Reviews
A staff writer at The Music AU said it “boasts their trademark harmonies, emotive vocals and melodic electronic beats”[3]
Lauren from Stoney Roads said "It opens with a vocals-only melody that oozes with a rich, emotional sensitivity. The atmosphere builds as the synth and airy vocal layers stagger their way in - but the bluesy ballad stops right there. The beats drops. The funk begins. And funky, it is. The groovy melody is seriously lush, with crooner Ben Woolner showing off an impressive falsetto and a sensual, husky voice. Synth bleeps and bloops fill the soundscape, creating a sort of futuristic pop-r&b tone."
