Warm, lush textures are everywhere on Swedish producer Hannes Norrvide’s third album, like crocuses pushing through the ice in spring—a pleasant anomaly amongst coldwave's typical themes of isolation and despair. From the dancefloor crush of “Another Day” to the bubbly analog richness of “Kirsten” and the sampled speech that flows through “Barcelona,” the music highlights the tenderness of the lyrical themes—love, connection, and beauty—even if they're appropriately concealed in a snowbank of reverb.
