Sophomore

Duck and Cover

Joel Frieders | August 26, 2015

I hit play and then clicked away and it wasn't until just before the two minute mark when I realized I wasn't paying attention to anything anymore.

Sophomore takes a spaced out chill and then gently increases the depth of the nod, and just when you're completely slow-seizing, he backs off the gas again, then when it reemerges you're too comfortably in the pocket to not notice how delightful the radiating synth in the background is. This beat is so fucking badass it feels like good memories and shit. 

It's Boards of Canada but it almost feels like I can appreciate it with another sense besides just through hearing. "Duck and Cover", I can touch.

BALLS.
