  • On their 2019 debut album, Hong Kong band N.Y.P.D. explored psychedelic rock and post-punk with an uninhibited attitude. On a new album, local club producers retain that carefree spirit through remixes that channel early '00s rave. "BMUU," originally a dubby downtempo track, gets an acid-flavored rework from Klasse Wrecks cofounder Mr. Ho, who pairs loose, steely electro rhythms with spiralling synths and the original Cantonese vocals. There are no groundbreaking transitions or novel elements here, just the well-oiled sound of a chugger doing what it does best—setting up dance floors for darker antics.
