Carteret is a touching effort that builds upon the 1980s new wave style. With moody, dark vocals and a slower tempo, Waldo Witt is able to make something beautiful. With nods to contemporary styles like vaporwave and even ethereal / IDM present here, Carteret is a heady track. Virtually requiring listeners to strap on their favorite pair of headphones, Waldo Witt painstakingly lays down each dynamic. The resulting effort is epic in scope and sounds equally fitting no matter which context one views it through. The middle / last third of Carteret moves more to the instrumental side of things, really showcasing the technical proficiency of Witt here.
