Album Review: Homeshake - Fresh Air

Madelyn Tait

"It's still as refreshing as a breath of fresh air."

More Homeshake Homeshake

Fresh Air is the third full-length album from Homeshake (aka Peter Sagar) and here the Canadian artist showcases his R&B-influenced, atmospheric indie-pop across 14 laid back tracks.

Mac DeMarco's former touring guitarist shows off his knack for dreamy guitar lines on songs like album opener Hello Welcome, Getting Down Pt. II (He's Cooling Down), TV Volume and the album's title track. Other highlights include Not U, a combination of melodic synth lines and mellow vocals and Every Single Thing, evolving from eerie atmos and layered dialogue into one of Fresh Air's more uptempo tracks.

Sonically the album doesn't deviate too much from Homeshake's previous releases, however it's still as refreshing as a breath of fresh air.
