The experimental electronic duo Body Parts explores vast musical textures and
sounds-capes on their debut album Body Parts. Many of the sounds channel the
golden years of 80s New Wave. On the worship anthem “Be A God”, Ryder’s vocals
invoke a sense of urgency and masochism. The drum loop of “Unavoidable Things”
brings to mind 80s Sade. The album has a retro feel that does not seem outdated or
contrived but rather paying homage to an incredible era of music. Still, the album
remains contemporary and forward thinking with its great lyrical composition, sleek
production, and amazing vocals. A must listen for any music lover.
