They perfectly transition between an assortment of flows, making it difficult to presume the rhythms they will utilise in forthcoming lines. They use the best of their vocal span with the freshness in their delivery, eliciting a sound that is free of anticipation. More eminently, the listeners can effortlessly get lost in a phenomenal record like “Slow Motion” and the song finishes before a listener knows, compelling them to replay the track continuously. Overall, “Slow Motion” is a first track that captivates listeners and encourages them to listen to the rest of Oboise’s stunning releases.
