Album Capsules--Toro Y Moi

Toro Y Moi

Anything in Return

77/100

You're 28 years old and you just invited a bunch of friends and acquaintances over for your first party.  When they come through the door, an album like this is a good candidate for the album that you'll want to be playing--chill-out electronic R&B music.  It probably isn't going to be offensive to anyone, and you can use it to gauge what people really want to hear.  It's a good album.  It serves a purpose.  It's not dance music, so guests won't feel obligated to shake their ass without having gotten drunk first.  In short, it serves a second purpose.  If you're out clubbing or barhopping, it's good music to play on the way back from the club/bar.  I tried to think, Can this album serve a purpose?  Well, I can think of two.  I imagine this album will sell many, many copies.  "Say That" is below.
