Riki's "Gold" shifts from darkwave to super-slick synth-pop, heavily influenced by the '80s. Fretless bass, sax solos, and gated snares create a nostalgic vibe." Riki's vocals pay homage to Madonna, Bananarama, and Sade.
"It's No Secret" breaks from the '80s, embracing mid-'90s dubby pop, while "Marigold," featuring Joshua Eustis of Telefon Tel Aviv, hints at chillwave's resurgence. "Gold" conveys a melancholic undertone, occasionally flirting with parody. giovannilauffer
