The captivating “Tornado” is a track that Rio Tigre wrote between Paris and Brooklyn. Serene vocals, nocturnal synths and percussive click-clacking do well in conjuring a distinctively late-night feel. In writing between two different time zones, sometimes a more nocturnal sound can emerge, as day/night becomes more blurred together. Whether that was the case with this track remains to be seen, though its atmospheric pull is certainly undeniable. Steady organs and vocals expand to a bass-laden richness, with full-sounding synths taking over in the second half. “Tornado” is exceedingly easy to get lost within.
