Having been in development for a full year & a half, smdge. returns with this surprising foray into the world of soft-spoken electronica. Somewhere between ‘The Notwist’, ‘Ms. John Soda’, ‘B.Fleischmann’, & ‘boy in static’ lie the foundations for what is a refreshing alternative for anyone not taken with his debut albums indie sensibilities. Present on this e.p. is the pulsating A-Side that is ‘our monster’, stuffed with shy melancholy, & tender pop hooks it’s an irrevocably enchanting number. This is accompanied by 3 b-sides of unusual quality including the aching refrains of 'awake for nothing', the gorgeous pop of 'hello, hello', & the shy tribute that is ‘Stephanie says’. Features gorgeous guest vocals by Sayako Robinson. Includes gorgeous artwork by Jan Kruse of Human Empire & Morr Music.
