about

Fall into the reel of intimate bedroom renditions and dusk-lit living rooms. A blissful mirage of home demos and golden hits, dripping with lethargy and groove. From the exploding plastic inevitable, to stripped down motown ballads, after all this time, Napoleon rides again. Perfect for watching the rain puddle in your yard, as well as cruising over PCH with the top down. Spurs kick open the swinging doors and behold, a plush, velvet rug leading to satin sheets and velvet drapes. After laying in bed for hours, the world peaks through the blinds, but dust remains suspended in its beams, and the song birds chime in pleasantly.
- Zam Taylor
