    Jetlag comes off secluded and intuitive, which wouldn’t be a problem if he didn’t cut his talents short.

    A few songs are too long and self-indulgent (Do You Want What I Need, Hold Me), but the fuzzy synths, minor-key melodies and subtle worldy percussion make it very easy listening on the whole.

You still have Milosh's beautiful, elegant vocal passages but this time the production and backdrop are dense waves of electronics with more attitude.
