Don't think I've listened to these folks before, put in on because someone mentioned them as having a pretty strong Stereolab vibe. The comparison is right on, not in a derivative way but just in a "that's the space they inhabit" way.
At first listen this album is just immaculate: every track unique, lots of unexpected moments in instrumentation (the sort of thing that makes you go, "Hey, where'd that sax come from?"), breakbeats for days, lots of bloops and bleeps but never overdone, and ethereal vocals that just float. Can't wait to listen again, definitely worth a listen if Stereolab is a favorite for you.
