This minimalist two-track release revels in contemporary electronica fashion. Darcy Baylis relies heavily on the soft disco beats purveyed by ultra-current local artists such as Oscar Key Sung, however Baylis adopts a somewhat poppier approach. The first track reveals a keen vulnerability in his delicate R&B-style vox, which glide over a restrained pounding. His affinity for a soulful rhythm comes to the fore, complemented by the chirpy melody of an augmented flute. Gentler follow-up Ecstasy is a more repetitive beast, though Baylis' sweet vocals are still undeniably charming. He plays Boney on 27 Jun.
