Rubies songwriting, Kaputt production.Sounds good to me.

i wouldn't call this kaputt production at all, that slinky synth funk angle is v different

it's a little different to kaputt but the closest he's come to it since (not that he's strayed that far either). a bit more propulsive instead of the way kaputt luxuriates in the endlessly soloing guitars, trumpets, and saxes
i can easily imagine "make it sound... cooool!" as one of his lyrics

nice of him to make sure kaputt 2 is in a different decade so he can have two AotDs

Yeah, it doesn't sound like Kaputt. otm "more propulsive".Unfortunately the song is not very good, after listening to it a few times.

i listened to it like 15 times yesterday so i think it's probably good

i guess i did the same with Times Square though and then never really got on board with that record

Talking of synthesisers, any love for the 2022 album Labyrinthitis?

Destroyer "Have We Met" out 1/31/20
there was discussion in the have we met thread
i think it's probably his best since kaputt, though it notably falls off in the last two tracks

Ah thanks ufo. I'll head over there.
