Something Worth Saying

Say That is the kind of Toro y Moi track that doesn’t announce itself. It’s from Anything in Return, Chaz Bundick’s 2013 pivot away from chillwave gauze into something more groove-oriented and direct—less bedroom haze, more deliberately warm. The song pulls slow, sits low, and improves whatever room it’s in without demanding attention. I’ve had it running as background to everything and it never outstays itself, which is the particular gift Bundick has: music that lives quietly in the corner and makes wherever you are feel slightly more like somewhere you’d choose.
