Warm Weather, Wrong Feeling

Owen Ashworth has a gift for making summer sound like something you’re already failing to hold onto. As Advance Base—the project he built after closing down Casiotone for the Painfully Alone—he works in lo-fi synth textures and confessional fragments that have no business being as affecting as they are. Summer Music lands exactly where you’d expect: somewhere between a memory and an ache, window open, wrong person not there.
