On September 18, Acéphale will put out Total Loss, the sophomore release from How To Dress Well. First single "Ocean Floor For Everything" showed Tom Krell still in full-on crooner mode, singing his heart out over minimal beats.
"Cold Nites" continues this R&B influenced trend, stripping the sound even further to push Krell's icy voice more into the spotlight. He's adept with manipulating ghostly samples, turning the new record into a highly-anticipated statement from a highly-creative artist. Stream the song below.

Wow this shit is so dope. Even more so than any time before, he is really bridging the gap between ambient/lo-fi and straight up R&B. I went to the Public Assembly show a few weeks ago, and I must say most of the new material is definitely in the R&B direction and it sounds so fucking good. Can't wait! Word to Bart Scott.
