In “Get Like,” Nosaj Thing makes great use of powerful kick drums and slick hats and snares. The melodies in the background have a trip-hop feel to them although the beat pattern feels naked with the absence of a kick drum. “U G,” the next song on the album utilizes chopped samples, a technique commonly used in hip-hop production, to create a trippy experience for the listener. This track has a deep, dark, melodic feel to it and Kazu Makino’s chilly ethereal vocals make make this an absolutely beautiful song.
The following track, “Form,” is slightly less spacey and picks up the tempo a small bit with some of its more upbeat synths, but it is right back to the light, dream-like vibe on the next track, “How We Do,” which features vocals from Kazu Makino. There are minimalist drum patterns on the song and the instrumentation consists largely of hauntingly beautiful melodies layered behind the soft soulful croon of Spacek.
The atmospheric vibe is continued into the next track, “All Signs Point Back To You,” which features vocals by Kevin Spacek. The album opens up with the dreamy track, “Nowhere.” The song is a fitting introduction to the chill, melodic, electronic album, and features a lulling piano number layered with an atmospheric melody.
