every song on this 5-track single is full of sledgehammer crushing happiness, it falls down on the listener and never lets go. standard synthpop formula has been used here with clean vocals, soft melodies, pretty sequencing and nice choruses. without the vocals the music could actually pass as rather addictive simple light electro (which is very obvious on "tranquility base"), but introduction of overpowering voice works like an overdose of prozac, essentially killing almost every track.
