"The latest Detroit upstart, Manic Moves, is a three piece who craft maximal electronic pop productions that strive for the coveted analog aesthetic counterpoint. And it couldn't be on better display on their only recording to date, the subtly infectious single "Montreal". The song begins and ends in the haze of endless white noise, it's the shape-shifting Radio Dept-like vocals and washed out synths that won't leave your head space for a minute."
