Taking influence from the foot stomping soul of early Stax records, Yellow Magic Orchestra’s warbling synthesisers and classic English pop songwriting akin to XTC, the album’s latest offering ‘Exhibition Song’ is both indulgent and soulful. It details days derailed, stalled by trivialities and an overriding urgency to stay home with the person you love – “a hand that’s held with no thought at all, it takes so long just to get one”. Exhibition Song’s decisive and inventive arrangement is a testament to Gonzalez’s skills as a songwriter.
