Reviews

The album has some misfires due to his extremely experimental nature and enthusiasm for embracing pop and soul and funk and disco and hip hop and easy-listening classic hits, but considering this, it’s really just seamless.

Oshin is an atmospheric ride that’s neither light nor dark – a bit like seeing the sun pierce tree canopies through your eyelids.

These tracks are linked by songs without as clear a focus; or even worse, are abrasive without a clear purpose at all.

Moleta’s narrative songwriting style here carries with it a real sense of place; it feels uniquely Perth, as if he manages to capture the essence of grey asbestos fences, brown lawns and dry summers and weave it into his lyrical tapestries.

This lurch into tropical-inspired music may sound predictable, tiresome and even lame, but the band have managed to work the trend well.

Rætina is a pretty tame taste that barely scratches the surface of just how interesting and surprising his work can be.

There just should have been a bit more – and/or a bit less – of everything.

Those babes from Digitalism have a trippy new video out for 'Falling'. So pretty. So whack.
