all time classic and honestly a whole new era for me. one of those albums i genuinely keep returning to without getting tired of it. the attention to detail is absurd - tiny sounds everywhere, yet nothing feels overcrowded. beautiful balance of cold electronics and human emotion.

IT IS LIKE OPERA AND SALSA HAD A BABY! 💃🏛️
what a symphonic ride. beautiful, unexpected, slightly posh sounds everywhere. high class drama wrapped in latin pulse. feels luxurious and messy at the same time - like wearing silk while rolling in warm dust.
