Comment: this one-man- act (previously known as Slowtempo) comes out from New Zealand and is predominantly tagged as "seapunk". The generic term "seapunk" does mean an adjacent form to glo-fi and witch house, however, the aforementioned elements are mixed up with aquatic themes (dripping situations, for instance), self-irony and even a bit absurd. Indeed, this set of 7 tracks clashes basically against ebbing and flowing lo-fi frequencies and DIY aesthetics in a highly tumultuous way, sometimes the aesthetics clears up revealing its sympathy toward shoegaze-ish influences, loose snare drum based trap circulation, hirsute 8-bit-ish droning, and precious electro pop. It is very suitable to start off your day with these frantic vibes.
