On par with the as-of-late re-popularization of drum and bass, Lubalin effortlessly blends electro-pop and indie-rock with the genre on his latest studio effort, haha, no worries. Often drawing from personal experience and despondency, the album feels much like an outlet for navigating these things in (what feels like) real time.
Leaving his comedic TikTok persona in the past, Lubalin intentionally laces his tracks with a cinematic sense of self-awareness, making them the perfect backdrop for those late-night walks where everything feels a little too intense and the world feels oddly still.
