“Universal Angel” and its soft textures and hazy melodies is reminiscent of a period in music when early chillwave artists existed at the same time as some of the more creative deep house producers but never really collaborated. But Guava with this track taps into the meditative and transporting sounds of that time and fuses the styles perfectly here. The song featuring the introspective and warm vocals of Maddie Ashman considers the nature of genuine love and how it is only fully possible when both parties are free to connect without mitigating burdens. Whatever one’s own specific perspective on that subject might be the song’s lushly enveloping production and hypnotically measured rhythms is truly entrancing.
