High Places: Hi, I’m High Places.Tom: Hello, High Places.High Places: I’m a New York-based duo, I’ve been hyped a bit by Pitchfork, my music is sensual without being sexual, I have a fashionably varied palette of influences, and I’ve just done this 28-minute long compilation which illustrates the extent of my potential wonderfully whilst still being an absorbingly enjoyable listen in itself.Tom: I agree with you completely, High Places.High Places: Cool. I’ll just go then, right?Tom: Yeah, pretty much. I have very little else to add. This is a really fun record though. Lovely, too.High Places: Thanks so much!Tom: My pleasure.
End scene.
