"is full of delicious moments that feel like biting into a rich chocolate-covered strawberry: the falsetto runs at the end of "Magic I Want U," the subtle "rock ya hips" sample littered throughout "Music Baby," or the impressive use of scratching across the whole EP. Songs about partying with your crush are nothing new, but Jane Remover delivers theirs with a playful juvenility that makes the emotional expression on ♡ feel novel."
"More than half of the EP's songs are tweaked versions of older material: In addition to "Dream Sequence," there's reworked versions of "Magic I Want U" and "Flash in the Pan," and a slightly extended version of "How to Teleport." Across the board, the changes are noticeable but minimal. There's no major updates to their vocals or production, just a replaced sample here and a tiny coda there."
Jane Remover's EP features playful, indulgent party-pop moments—falsetto runs, recurring samples, and prominent scratching—that refresh familiar themes of crush-driven partying. Several tracks are reworked versions of older songs, including "Dream Sequence," "Magic I Want U," "Flash in the Pan," and an extended "How to Teleport." The alterations are intentional but minimal, typically replacing a sample or adding a small coda without overhauling vocals or production. Some listeners express nostalgia for rougher originals, yet the modest tweaks neither significantly alter quality nor dramatically broaden the material's appeal. The releases reflect experimental engagement with digital-era music practices.
