Traum continues its win streak with a duo I’ve never heard of before taking on “Everything In Its Right Place” on the opener and matching it with a slowly modulating gospel vocal that nearly breaks out of its self-imposed obfuscation by track’s end. “Part 2” trades pop song familiarity for dance music move familiarity, by utilizing acid squiggles and synth pads to nicely clichéd effect. Steve Barnes pops in for a third portion that splits the difference between the two, melding the atmospherics and emphatically dance-centric second part. Needless to say, recommended.
