First single sounds really promising.... I've never played their debut properly till now, which is nothing to be proud of, honestly, I think its a masterpiece

It's good. It sounds to me a bit like a yoga soundtrack.

This is a really fantastic comeback, sounds very ~mysterious~ *.*

I'm not super familiar with their previous stuff but I did love 'Just' from BJSC, will definitely keep an eye on them this era.

This is indeed fantastic. If you like this Bré, you would like their last album as this could easily have been on it wub.gif

I'll try and check it out at some point, they have made a great impression on me from just two songs!

(I feel like I may have heard a couple of other songs from them somewhere but I don't know if it's just me recognising the titles from seeing other people posting them laugh.gif)

You should definitely check it out, it's one of the best dance albums of the past decade!

In 90s this kind of tunes easily made top 40. Now.... top 400 is the only thing it can achieve, sad times.

'Atlas' is surprisingly as high as #76 on iTunes and #927 on Apple Music which is rather good for this type of song.
it's grown on me a lot this week anyhow, I should probably get round to listening to their first album sometime.

I did eventually listen to their first album and sadly none of it was nearly as good as 'Atlas'.
this new one sounds promising from the preview anyhow.

It’s one of my most listened to albums, not a single dud for me.

Fully agree- I found “Atlas” ok but a bit disappointing.. almost like a less interesting retread of “Just”.

I can see why they waited to follow it up, something a LOT stronger and more ambitious was needed to spark interest in the second era. Perhaps it was just a 'buzz' single, let's hope it isn't indicative of what's to come anyway.
