  • On New York duo R. Missing's "Placelessness," vocalist Shy quietly sings of depression and emotional detachment over a cacophony of brooding synths, while Toppy's production drones and pulses with a retro-futuristic touch. Eerie and detached, Shy's vocals waft along like some haunted lullaby: "How can you tell me that I have to wait?" she repeats, the type of question that could mean everything or nothing. This is spectral darkwave that takes you out of your immediate surroundings and places you on an ambling path through a moonlit nowhere.
