Jack Tatum un- derstands this balance, and through a decade making music as Wild Nothing he has learned to embrace both sides of that dynamic—but perhaps never as distinctly as on Indigo, the fourth Wild Nothing album. On one hand, it is a return to the fresh, transcendent sweep of his debut, 2010’s Gemini, and on the other, a culmination of heights reached, paths traveled, and lessons learned while creating CT-282 the follow-ups, Nocturne and Life of Pause. Indigo finds Tatum at 1. Letting Go his most efficient, calculated, and confident—resulting in an artful 2. Oscillation blend of hi-fi humanity and technology that fires on all circuits and 3.

The resulting Indigo is its own cyborg world, utiliz- ing the artful mechanisms of human touch with the precision of technology to create the classic, pristine sound Tatum had been seeking his entire career. From the opening drum beat, chiming CD UPC: 817949014971 UK COLORED VINYL UPC: guitar, and sweeping synth of “Letting Go” to Tatum’s Bryan Ferry 817949015664 vocal turn on “Oscillation” to the ’80s-heavy blips, clicks, and strut of “Partners in Motion,” it’s clear that Indigo is at once vintage Wild Nothing and a bold, new leap into a bigger arena.
