Contos longos

Side A's transition into the title track is so seamless it feels like one long piece of music. The vinyl itself is dead quiet between tracks, which really lets the analog warmth shine through.

The analog warmth on this pressing is unreal, really captures the grit of those old synthesizers Pritchard dug up. Side A flows perfectly into the quieter moments, and the vinyl itself feels sturdy with zero surface noise. Been spinning it nonstop since it arrived.

The packaging arrived perfectly flat with no warping, and the pressing is incredibly quiet between tracks—you can really hear the detail in those analog synth textures. Thom's voice sits beautifully in the mix, and it's one of those records I've already spun three times in a row.
