Opening track “Human Rights” sounds as though it would lend itself right to a live set, transforming from a fairly organic beginning to a twinkling suspense punctuated by a minimal number of sounds, to great effect. The way each aspect fades out until the end leaves the listener patiently awaiting the next track, which is a notable quality of the EP – these aren’t really “tracks” meant to be chopped into convenient pieces to use at the DJ’s whim, but “songs” to be played in their entirety. To the same effect, they aren’t particularly body-moving, but something about them makes you feel warm & fuzzy inside. “Give In (For the Fame)” was given away to a fair amount of acclaim across the major blogosphere outlets this week. It’s an R&B-sampling track that, on the surface, fits in place with recent releases characterizing the new future-whatever post-whatever sound sweeping the nation, but a bassline firmly planted in the indie realm, thereby removing it from being a casualty of trends and making it something you’d want to put on a mixtape. “Untitled” feels like an interlude, again with percussion that sounds like it could be played on an actual kit instead of an 808, looping until the listener falls into a trance. “Temple” is perhaps the quietest offering on the EP, with layers of piano, synth, claps, chipmunked vocal and all else fading in and out of focus to reach a climax that’s more soothing than rousing.
