Engaging with a hazy, twangy lushness, “Dipping” is a recent single from junk mailing. The project formed “in the back of a Volkswagen Vanagon while traveling through the USA,” with that adventurous spirit echoed in the track’s capricious-feeling structural navigation and laid-back charm. The 30-second mark uplifts with its peppy percussive entry and string-laden feeling, following a subdued initial contemplation. The jangly guitar tones, serene orchestral hints, and laid-back vocals make for a delightful journey throughout.
