    Far from a diminishing return, Timeless is the sound of a master getting back into the groove and finding his muse burning bright as ever.

    While it may be early to qualify his style or sound as timeless, it's managed to stand the test for the past 10 years and he's done nothing but hone his skills.

    Less is more has never been a part of Kaytranada's creative ethos, and while there are many ear-catching tidbits on Timeless, the LP also has its fair share of moments that get lost in the shuffle. .... But even with these misses, the album never fully slides into outright dullness—there's always a big idea or complex breakdown right around the corner.

    With so many tracks, the album can feel overstuffed, especially with several tonally similar R&B tunes. Yet, the highlights ultimately outweigh the filler.

    This an album that proves Kaytranada’s production skills to be limitless.
  6. This album acts as a bookmark of his creative evolution, and its polished production work makes it a good representation of his musical identity thus far.

    If Timeless feels slighter than its predecessors, it’s no less assured, its purpose no less profound: to get you moving, even in quiet moments.

    Kaytranada continues to refine his sample-laced mixture of house, compas, hip-hop, and other cross-continental styles of dance music with Timeless.

    There’s pressure to satisfy. Largely, it does – especially when there’s a spark with his songwriting partners. Rochelle Jordan brings heat to her pair of dancefloor-ready offerings. Still, with Charlotte Day Wilson, balances polish and raw performance. KAYTRANADA gets fantastic performances out of Anderson .Paak and Childish Gambino, who are given extravagant tracks to work with. Other moments are stilted.
