In The Golden Hour, Collect Call creates an ethereal, whimsical, yet emotive world where the melancholy electronic dream-pop soundscape fills the air with nostalgic warmth. Lo-fi electronic beats travel in time with various versions of images and visions that meet a sensitive, sincere vocal. Obscure, shimmering dreamscape that is both alluring and glistening under the deep blue ocean.

The Golden Hour keeps you warm on a lonely, rainy day. Sentimental piano always fills the room with memories where the past floats in the thick, dusty air and time have come to a stop. “Chase the Light” introduces a light, energetic tempo within that universe, warming you up in the calming morning sun yet with a shadow of intensity. “Simple” dives underwater in a vintage, shimmering radio dissonance that exists between sounds. In a heartbeat, it swirls into a full-blossom of the dream-pop landscape.

Collect Call’s vocal gently hits you in waves on “No Amount of Medicine,” which sensitively contrasts with the vague, feathery vocal that tastes like a lucid dream in the title track “The Golden Track". The soundscape has become thicker and heavier in the lo-fi piano sound that seems to shift and twist slightly in the air.
