Background
The title represents an idea that Conro attempts to 'connect the dots' of many different sub-genres of electronic dance music. The lead single "Close" was described as a "lush" future bass[5] track, which "blurs the line" between pop and future bass,[6] consisting of big room build-ups and drops and "Circus", the second track on the EP, was compared to Odesza's musical style and described as having "syncopated, rubbery synth riff with pitched vocals".[7] The third song "Remedy" was described as a "genre-bending masterpiece"; the fourth "Lay Low", a collaboration with David Benjamin is a tropical house track and the fifth song "Love Divine" was described as having strong synths. Conro stated "I redefined my passion for music and decided to write something different."[8][9]
