Comment: hooray, France-based musician Juan Naveira aka Mr Juan (also known in regard to his side projects Miss Emma, and Limbo Deluxe) is back with a barrage of psychedelic organ sounds, seamless surf licks, dizzy funk grooves, and sly latin motives mixed flickers. Similarly to his previous issues it is highly amusing and chilling. If you dare to call it as "muzak" then you should admit it is a sort of arty muzak whose
inspirational sources do hark back to whimsical space age pop and elfish exotica/tiki pop in addition to the aforementioned sections. However, there are even up some motorik elements related to the aesthetics of krautrock, and indie vibes. Indeed, I have never perceived the use of synthesizers by him before it. In a nutshell, it is a fabulous listening experience.
