Comfortable as the kind of bedroom pop album that almost demands the jumping on of beds, yet equally at home as a declaration against the dying of the day, Talabot's debut is an album set to become one of those timeless electronic albums. Timeless because it has no distinct place, instead alive through the influence of others, therefore comfortable anywhere and everywhere; and instead of being a compilation of loosely affiliated beats fIN instead is a cry of sublime cohesiveness, each track designed to work in perfect unison, to compliment each other. It?s a truly instinctive album, and as it stands now, one of a kind.

Not too bad. Not too unique or progressive in the grand scheme of things, but still good for
what it is. Will make you consistently feel things you're comfortable feeling.

Jungley beats with deep house progression that gathers element from many different aesthetic, be it non-poopy Balearic Beat, disco, trance, bedroomy pop, dance-pop, or tech house. It's an electronic album that breathes of organicity and weaves different soundwaves in a coherent manner, giving it *that* kind of timeless feeling - it doesn't sound like a 2012 electronic album, and oh god it's so damn cool.

The trope known as 'unintentional period piece' means nothing when applied to the interesting creation that is Fin. Based out of Barcelona, Spanish DJ/producer Oriol Riverola (aka John Talabot alongside other various aliases) has cooked up a full-length debut filled to the brim with both retro and modern characteristics. An electronic record at its very core, this 11-song album also carries musical influences like disco, trance, house, dance, and pop. Spanning 51 minutes in length, the material that makes up Fin goes through a variety of moods thanks to its dense songwriting as well as the samples provided throughout. Whilst the effort doesn't scream fully realized track-by-track (e.g. "Journeys" feels out of place; "El Oeste" is underwhelming despite that sick beat tho), Riverola has generally succeeded in making an album that will either make listeners get down or sit in reflection. Angel nominates: "Depak Ine," "Oro y Sangre," "Last Land," "When the Past Was Present," and "H.O.R.S.E."
