Better than Revengeseekerz. If we got a full album of this, it'd easily be my album of the year. I really hope Jane leans more into this style in the future, because the dancey stylings in this while still being much calmer than something like Revengeseekerz stand out to me in such an incredible way.

She takes from some really unexpected spots! I remember the second I heard How To Teleport I texted one of my friends about how Jane had officially become an honorary latina. She clearly knows her shit, because I don't think someone who didn't do their research would be drawing from stuff like Elysia Crampton and other cumbiatón influences.

There are few things that I love more than being able to tell that someone is as much of a nerd about music as I am just by listening to a composition, and Jane very consistently has proven that through all of her work, but this feels like an absolutely shining example of it more than anything else.

SCORE: 4.5/5
