No EDM bandwagon jumper, Palomo comes at the album with four decades of beats, drawing on everything from disco to today’s wobbly throwback house

What’s most fantastic about VEGA INTL. Night School is that its musical depth doesn’t allow pigeonholing of the album or Palomo into a genre gimmick like chillwave. It’s just good dance music

Compared to the spontaneous hodgepodges of 2009’s Psychic Chasms or 2011’s Era Extraña, VEGA INTL. Night School is a far more intricately assembled product
