Outasight's debut album Nights Like These is an impressive feat of artful appropriation. Nights Like These songs Outasight (known to his intimates as Richard Andrew) and his large crew of producers and co-writers find inspiration in almost every big mainstream pop act that ruled the charts in the early 2010's. Nights Like These album Over the course of a half hour, Andrew channels the tunefully breezy song craft of Bruno Mars, the frat rap style of Asher Roth, the giddy freedom of Chiddy Bang (who guest on one of the record's best tracks "Shine,") the jumped-up club beats used by everyone from Taio Cruz to Usher, and the dramatic techno build-ups popularized by Calvin Harris. The end result is a bright and shiny album that touches a lot of bases.
