What do reviewers say about Electric Dreams and Black Powder?

The bubblegum note is either going to make you stop in your tracks or reconsider everything. It's not trying to win you over, it's just stating a fact: this is 80s synth pop in a bottle, digital.Electric Dreams

Black Powder earns its reputation through contrast. The fruit up front is bold, almost defiant, then suede and tobacco take the wheel and don't let go.Black Powder
