It's got the temperature of the yacht rock paradise that everyone today longs to visit, but the details make it more than just a retro recreation. No one should be blamed for reaching for comparisons to Hall & Oates, but the admixture is a little more unexpected--rather than replicating an album from the 70s, they're formulating something that never quite happened. Imagine Stevie Wonder producing a Loggins & Messina album--or The Isleys working with Captain & Tennille. Don't dismiss the Captain! "Muskrat Love" was diaphanously funky. Abe and Jake would understand. 

You can tell the duo has session experience--they show the taste and restraint that comes from playing behind greats, from doing more with less, from crafting a statement out of something small. The songs are breezy and easy but each has its little ingenious touches. The way a bassline is configured against the beat in "Selfish Endeavor"; the way a chorus turns around and melts into the bridge on "It's Easy." They tuck the magic tricks and sonic surprises into the folds of pop songs, which reminds me a little of 10cc, but with way less layers in the cake.

It's not just duo music in name only--you can hear Jake and Abe in sync on every track. There's a simplicity and intimacy to everything that makes it feel like these songs belong to two minds, two mouths, four hands, making music in a room together. These four tracks have the detailing of a debut, but the spareness of a demo. The tracks are simple but deeply pocketed. They're uncluttered but with channels cut that invite all those bubble-bath analog keyboard sounds to flow through the songs in rivulets. This is either a demo that's been given the richness of an album, or an album that has the intimacy of a demo.

More than anything else, those keyboards get me high. I first saw Jake and Abe playing in the back room of Custom Vintage Keyboards in North Hollywood (a YouTube clip) and even though I know better there's part of me that still thinks of them as brothers hatched and happily raised in a private nest of Rhodes and Moogs and Clavinets.
