This album, which coexists with warm sounds from analog synths, drum machines, and vintage equipment, and an experimental approach to song structure, time signatures, and sound design, will emit a nostalgic and special glow for generations 20 or 30 years from now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eLEX, which also functions as a collective, has added Syl DuBenion (saxophone\/vocals), a member of New York's avant-garde jazz and hip-hop collective Standing on the Corner, to their rotation for this work, adopting a twin vocal style with Kim Mayo (vocals).
