Yes! Absolutely love this, one of my favourite 12’s of all time. I love the way it breaks down then builds up ever so slowly over the second half.

Hooked on love-
I bought this for 50 cents when I was 18 years old took it home and played it for about an hour straight. There’s something so ill about being a toy and discovering that you know nothing and will never run out of records to chase. A crazy high-
At any given time someone’s cool ass uncle somewhere on planet Earth is playing this song and doing a little dance-
Brooklyn shit/Cadillac music/Maximalist unashamedly-
