There are some tracks on this album that are just wayyyyyyyy too poppy, but then on some of them, Kim gives the producer (Vaughan Oliver) room to run wild, so he programs his analog synths (and that was in 2014) to make these crunchy sounds that fill the whole frequency space, and mixes however the hell he wants. Sometimes the lines between synth and percussion get blurred, and I absolutely adore it. Then she slaps her name on it, but whatever. I'm about 90% sure there are true-blue Baroque chord progressions in at least two songs. You'll all probably intuitively know which songs you like, and which you won't, within a few seconds of listening. Could be 0 songs you like, tho :/

P.S. the song "TRANSylvania" is her referencing that she's transexual, and it's one of my faves. It's also one of the Baroque-style tracks, in one section.
