Simple patterns, repetition, volume, control. Chords must be mapped out and orchestrated by somebody with a clue. In their element, however, they all appear to know where those hidden trapdoors reside. Each casually opens one at a time in what is necessarily a linear progression, but who knows from listening. This could be two songs but could very easily be twenty. That could be a guitar. Effects are utilized appropriately rather than trusted with domination over instruments. Suddenly, I realize I’ve been listening to bongos the whole time, and am not appalled.
