Dosh - Tommy

I try my best to take every new release from an artist as it's own thing. Comparing it to previous works is not always a fair assessment, even if it does provide some context from where the artist is coming from. Unfortunately, I can rarely pull this off effectively. I love the previous Dosh albums and came into this fully expecting to love it just as much as the others. The elements are here - the swirling electronics, the sprinkling of vocals and languid vibes but nothing jumped out to me at first. It's not a mix of the upbeat with the laid back.. it's just mostly laid back. Once I am over my initial preconceived notions of what I was expecting I am sure I will come around to this. I mean, there are sax solos on it after all....
