Elevation
Our rating, out of 100 — and why.
AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.
The EP showcases strong writing and production but lacks a cohesive flow throughout its runtime.
What we noticed
- The first three tracks feature a consistent use of layered vocal harmonies, creating a rich texture that contrasts with the minimalist beats.
- Tracks often shift abruptly in tone and tempo, particularly noticeable between 'Smile' and 'Loco', which alters the emotional landscape.
- The EP closes with 'Big Time', which features a slower pace and introspective lyrics, providing a stark contrast to the preceding tracks.

Little footprint beyond its audience. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
