The group&#8217;s wide arsenal of hazy synthesizers, Rhodes pianos, electric guitars, and also violins blend into a beautiful and dreamy blur of nostalgic sensuality. Adding to the mood are the EP&#8217;s melancholic female vocals which often bring to mind the soft and whisper-y style of <strong>FKA Twigs<\/strong>. The group&#8217;s style draws influences from trip-hop and also Euro-pop, and their melodies are catchy enough to stick in your head for a while.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Stolen Gift<\/em> is a gorgeously mellow jam, built from serene vocals floating only on a simple steady beat and a droning synth. <em>The Island<\/em>, on the other hand, begins with a lone piano and soon morphs into the loud buzz of a distorted synthesizer.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite Track:<\/strong> <em>Head Fake<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>9\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Track List<\/strong><br \/>\n1.
