Background

The EP was described as "representing the blossoming talent of a precocious producer who is finally starting to receive the attention he deserves."[1] Speaking about the EP's creative process, Seven Lions said "It's pretty much the same process with every song. I write very linear, start with the intro/theme and then work through it from there. I tend to spend 3–4 weeks on one song. This year has been a big transition for me and I think that comes out a lot in the diversity of the EP."[3][4] Sputnikmusic called the EP an attempt by Seven Lions to expand his sound but "ends up with more of the same."[5][6]
