    Not a bad attempt by Chet Faker. The album brings in his very recognizable soulful vocals echoing over his classic down-tempo beats, creating a very pleasant listening experience.

    As a blind fan until now, I can say that it's the record that i have liked least of him.
    Actually i could not give many reasons, the fault could be mine. I have not found any song that made me feel a lot. Despite all of this, i do not know how to play guitar, how to play drums or even have any sense of rhythm. I am not he best judge, go and listen this album and do not take me into    As a blind fan until now, I can say that it's the record that i have liked least of him.

    I thank him for making nice music and i hope i'll like better his next record.    … Expand

    All ten songs run at the same midtempo pace, with mildly funky backing and steady trap rhythms. If there is a joy to be had, it’s in the unflappable nature of the songs resulting from Murphy’s tasteful, unencumbered production.

    Stretches further into his trademark laid-back R&B. [Jul/Aug 2021, p.133]

    The marginally more upbeat and engaging Feel Good aside, it’s all very tasteful but ultimately a little unexciting. As returns go, it’s an underwhelming one.
