Intriguing and otherworldly, “Droplets” is the latest from 5thPlanet. Impressing with the track “Allnite BB” last month, also from the album Outer Connections, the New York-based act continues to emphasize a consuming, atmospheric sound that unveils with ample engagement. Sounding like a futuristic thump set in a neon-tinted bar in the far reaches of space, “Droplets” shows a moving synth lead amidst arps and textural backing swells. The result is one that entices replays.
