Joo Joo Ashworth, mixing engineer and longtime \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efriend, also provided a pivotal presence helping crystallize the album's rhythmic language and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esubtly expanding the band's sound. The songs began reflecting conversations about fatherhood and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epartnership, breakups and estrangement, the queasy acceleration of AI, and what it means to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eremain present and principled while the world lurches unpredictably forward. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis tension is not announced but absorbed into the music. Holy Wave stretches their familiar sense \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof woozy atmosphere into something leaner and more direct. There are more loops and samples \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewoven throughout than before, grooves that feel constructed, cyclical, hypnotic. Some tracks drift \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etoward dub's elastic spaciousness; others pulse with cinematic downtempo gravity. There is a fresh \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esense of momentum throughout the record, rhythms that pull forward, dream-saturated textures,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esheets of fuzz, and softly suspended vocals. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"dewey's dirge\" unfolds patiently: hazy guitars bloom, a softened motorik pulse moving steadily \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebeneath. The vocals remain submerged, widening rather than exploding. It feels expansive and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ereflective, a comedown hymn that trades drama for immersion. \"i'm DADA,\" by contrast, locks into a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elean, circular groove. A tight drum figure, rubbery bassline, and clipped guitar phrase repeat until\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethey begin to feel animate. Lyrically, the song circles the complicated devotion of fatherhood, written \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein a brief pocket of rare solitude for a parent: Always loving (Try to do what's right) \/ Always \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elearning (There's never enough time). \"s33. u. in\/HAL\" plays like a transmission caught midair, faintly \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003emechanical, immersive without ever fully resolving, capturing the album's central sensation: the act of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etrying to communicate clearly through static. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf earlier Holy Wave records often felt defined by their sense of drift, i'm DADA feels newly\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003egrounded. The album doesn't abandon immersion; it disciplines it. Grooves settle, repetitions accrue \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eweight, and the music is composed and unshaken amongst it's heavier themes. What emerges is not \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ereinvention but a sharpening, with Holy Wave sounding less like\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 1.5em;\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eTRACKS:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Us 54\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e S33.
