    On his debut LP, Paddywhack, this one-boy act brings together two incredibly disparate styles-nightclub piano crooning and loop-based sampledelica--to create a collection of tunes that sounds like nothing else in modern pop (no, really).

    Friley has taken the sound of his debut EP--the four songs of which all appear on Paddywhack--and maintained that arresting, zombie barbershop quartet aesthetic, while also extending it into new developments, intervening piano lines and looped organ riffs, with which it blends in ways that never jar (your preserves).

    Paddywhack is probably too unassuming and restrained to make any impression on the wider public. That's a shame, for if you can be bothered to seek it out, there are some genuinely gorgeous moments that sound like nothing else out there right now.
