"The record opens with "Neon Pulse," inviting the listener into a dreamy, orchestral world that flows seamlessly into "Rapture in Blue," where singer Cecile Believe's delicate vocals breathe air into slowed-down breakbeats. Guitar melodies lurk, waiting to pounce, on "Haze," featuring Ellie, which bleeds into "A Silent Shadow," featuring bdrmm-and they do, with a fierce clash of drums and electric riffs."
"When asked about his particular taste, Avery has only been able to whittle it down to "music that sounds unreal." And an otherworldly, electric current runs through Tremor, which, at its best, showcases Avery's skills at reshaping the textures of his collaborators into new, distinctive forms. Mosshart's sultry vocals melt into the muddied synths of "Greasy Off the Racing Line," while yeule's plaintive pleas grow even more wistful against the backdrop of Avery's hazy, immersive production."
The record opens with a dreamy orchestral piece that flows into slowed-down breakbeats under delicate vocals. Guitar melodies and fierce clashes of drums and electric riffs punctuate tracks like "Haze" and "A Silent Shadow." The tracklist mirrors a DJ set by gradually building intensity and shaping a pyramid of desire. Rounded, flowing synths soften the album's grit but interrupt aggressive momentum at the midpoint. An otherworldly electric current runs through the album as collaborators' textures are reshaped into distinctive forms. Sultry and plaintive vocals sit atop muddied synths and hazy production. Some extended instrumentals drag and the absence of certain vocalists is felt.
