    After an extended break, Teengirl Fantasy return wiser and sounding somehow more like themselves.

    A worthy update of 7AM's tone poems, 8AM proves that seven years can feel like only an hour later when the music is this transporting.

    Where 2012's Tracer experimented with house and techno, 8AM recalls their debut, 7AM, but with a more refined approach.

    A record to welcome the morning light as it seeps through chinks in the curtain. [May 2017, p.91]

    Teengirl Fantasy gesture plenty at dark, intense, minimal electronic music on 8AM. At times, the music briefly captures the effect they seem to be going for, but too often the duo fails to commit and develop their soundscapes sufficiently.
