Music

Think Damien Rice: acoustic guitar does all the portage, and the strings weave in and out like birds following a caravan.

Production styles ranging from hipster art-rock like Spoon to a grittier London sound like Circa Waves. 

The city lights along Atlantic avenue; a cross-section of the filth and fever of a city mad with its own energy.

Leah Capelle puts a finger on the reality of cognitive dissonance in the modern age. 

Surprising, genuine, and a true synthesis of genres - there are conscious hip-hop and old soul elements. Also funk.

Kicks are fatter now and we got a sample for that. Its dirty and funky and greazy, all at the same time.

The honesty and the bittersweetness is palpable; theres a story there, and more importantly, there is true pathos.

The sensibility is Modest Mouse... and something about the writing, the easy falsetto, the clean electric and the boomy kit, reminds me of Paulo Nutini.
