The next release on Allergy Season has Physical Therapy showing off his range. “My Experience” features 4 versions of the same lyrical lick in increasingly deconstructed forms.
First is the Subjective Mix, a life-affirming tech-house roller coated in glistening keys built atop a room-shaking bassline. Next, the Objective Mix, a minimal funhouse acid trip, flips the buoyant energy of the first version on it’s head.
The Unreliable Narrator Mix, featuring vocals from Physical Therapy, is the slow and psychedelic soundtrack to an internal monologue. Finishing things off is the Unreliable Narrator Dub, a dub of a dub if you will, letting the lyrics finally fall apart in a sonic ego death.

I read in an interview that the album was composed to provoke a sense of joy, and I feel that.

I can't work out how, which creates a glorious mystery on top of the great sounds. Octagonism
