Donkeyboy - Lost

Donkeyboy are taking their sweet time with that elusive third album, and making the wait even worse as they continue to release brilliant singles in the interim. Their sound has remained very consistent, augmented slightly each time to make it sound new and noteworthy. The common denominator is always those breezy, otherworldly vocals and lush synth-scapes. Lost gives off a vibe that's a little more minimalistic, with the focus mostly on the track's slick beat. It marks a more club-friendly detour for the group, but manages to avoid the generic pit most "club" tracks fall into these days. Honestly, they're one of the few acts in western music that I'm still into these days.
