REVIEWS
Foxx’s latest collaboration is such an uncanny fit that, in a way, it feels strange it hasn’t happened sooner. Dreamy and romantic, English but profoundly other, songs like ‘Empty Avenues’ and ‘Time Of Your Life’ are both inviting and intriguing, finding a shared space between two well-defined aesthetic universes.
FACT
...neon sombre, rainy day replicas of Junior Boys' transatlantic glide, experienced through the world weary conscience of David Sylvian. Arguably the label's finest effort.
