Beautiful album!!!!!! such a bright but warm piano sound! brown butter voice! the album tastes like waffles and burnt coffee and leftover smoke in a cool breeze!

i could write for years about this album being the peak of sophistipop greatness. but i’ll leave you with just two things.
one:
this man recruited RYUICHI SAKAMOTO to produce this and produce this he fuckin did.
two:
roddy frame had this to say about the process aside from Sakamoto being a genius:
“Frame says his days there rapidly fell into a pattern. Into the studio in the early afternoon; out again at around 2am; straight across to a deli off Time Square for a turkey sandwich ('because it was possible to get one at two in the morning, and for no other reason'); a cab-ride back to the Mayflower; an hour or so listening to Shabba Ranks on a ghetto-blaster; bed.”
LISTEN NOW.

Ben has one of my favorite voices ever. Just laid down in the sun and put on a playlist of his music and dozed off. Feels like its 2018 again in the best way possible. There's sth soooo soothing about his music. Once I woke up from my nap, I made some really good pasta because I finally had some patience while cooking. His music just slows me down and makes me feel at ease. Big fan.
