NPR had this to say: “The song opens with a stabbing organ line that serves as the template for a track that’s constantly shifting. Grey introduces rhythms for just long enough to set a foot tapping, before shifting to another infectious feel running parallel to the previous idea. As the song progresses, new elements are sprinkled atop staggering bars, until the original riff is recapped at the song’s conclusion. It’s a structure that’ll catch listeners off guard, but because of the accessibility of the beats, it never keeps them off balance.”
We are proud to present to you… Proximity One: Narrative of a City
