    Faraway Reach is a happy place full of group hugs and big shiny grooves.

    Recorded in Sydney, New York and California, ‘Faraway Reach’ bursts with sun-soaked vibes.

    There are a few misses (e.g. the melodically muddled T-Pain cameo “Whatever I Want”), but almost everything here works on some level.

    At various points, Faraway Reach is: a shrug; a call-to-arms; a balm. At its best, it's all these things at once.

    It never gets boring, it moves quickly, and it often hits lofty heights where the melodies, music, voices, and beats all combine as one to do what the best dance music does: Transport the listener to a sweaty, uplifted dancefloor packed with like-minded revelers.

    “Grecian Summer” seems like a Hanging Gardens off-cut, all bouncy beats and twinkling synths, whilst “Faraway Reach” is a blissed-out, breezy tune with just the right amount of funk. These moments are, however, disappointingly few and far between.
