Croatian Amor - A Part of You in Everything (2023) [Hi-Res]

Croatian Amor‘s last LP, Remember Rainbow Bridge, found Copenhagen producer Loke Rahbek branching into uncharacteristically clubby territory for one of the best electronic records of 2022. His new project, A Part Of You In Everything, builds on this skittering and melodic formula. The homage to Rahbek’s younger brother—who died at birth—is carried by warbled samples, garage grooves, and epic ’80s-style synths. It lands in the same muted, tender world as the most memorable 4 a.m. tearjerkers from Jacques Greene, Koreless, and Burial. The record is aided by guest features from artists including Perko (whose recent Huerco S.-featuring 12-inch for Numbers is another 2023 electronic highlight), Alto Aria, Vanessa Amara, and others. On A Part Of You In Everything, the aloofness that shaped early Croatian Amor standouts like The World and Love Means Taking Action has been dialed back a couple notches. But the poignance at the heart of Rahbek’s music is stronger than ever.
