Voltage Labs invites us to drift through the vaporous world of Joris Voorn’s ‘Melatonin’—an album that exhales warmth and introspection in every note.

This is not music to move to, but music to be moved by—a nebula of sound best experienced with open ears and a quiet mind. For those who seek refuge
