On Sunn, Gidon Schocken is able to employ Afik Doari’s vocals to make for something that is musically very deep while having a pop side that ensures it considerable playlist placement. Sunn nods to a number of distinct genres – there are hints of 1990s electronica, industrial, R&B and modern pop all working together to make one of the most engrossing efforts we’ve heard this autumn. Schocken is able to make something wholly different from the norm while touching upon RAM-era Daft Punk, hardstyle, and Flashing Lights-era Kanye. The groove that concludes Sunn will tattoo its melodies deep into the minds and hearts of listeners.
