Toro y Moi - Anything in Return [2LP Rose Quartz Eco Mix]

Anything in Return is Toro y Moi's big, bright pop moment, the 2013 album from Chaz Bundick returning on two LPs as a Rose Quartz eco mix pressing.

Bundick had been tagged as one of chillwave's founding voices, but here he set out to make something bigger sounding and more accessible. He recorded in San Francisco and handled production, mixing and even the artwork himself, while the lyrics lean on relationship strain and life on the road, so the grooves feel warm even when the words ache.

"So Many Details" rides a slow, heavy beat and a haze of synths, the moody lead single that set the tone. "Say That" chops and loops its vocals into a bouncing house groove, while "Rose Quartz", the song that gives this pressing its name, glows with soft, shimmering keys. "Never Matter" brings a breezier, funk-flecked lift late in the set.

Across thirteen tracks Bundick blends R&B, house, hip-hop production and psychedelic pop into something seamless and endlessly replayable. It's a headphones record that also works at a party.

Over a decade later it still sounds ahead of its time, and the Rose Quartz eco mix vinyl makes a fitting home for an album built on lush, careful layering.
