<p class="MsoNormal">Influenced by the likes of Stars, Straylight Run, Ben
Gibbard, Brand New, City & Colour and Styrofoam, The Analog Affair
self-describes itself as “underground indie electro-dramatic pop.” They aren’t
too far off the mark.<span>  </span><o:p></o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>            </span><o:p></o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The Analog Affair is the combined musical product of Evan
Baker and Cody Moser, two creative individuals who met in Laramie, Wyoming.
Later, even when Evan left for China, and Cody left for Tennessee, they
continued to collaborate and the Analog Affair continues to develop. <o:p></o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Listening to the music, one’s ear is quickly aware of the
heavy textures and layers that comprise each song. The process they utilize is
vaguely akin to the Postal Service, another influence of theirs; Evan and Cody
working together, but not together, weaving lyrics over instrumentals, to
create songs that carry a sense of loneliness or lost love, or the wilted night
sky after the party; hanging over everything like a scent. Though each piece
contains a sort of velvety weight to it, describing the music as ‘sad’ would be
inappropriate. There are breaks of lightness that shine through. In “Piece of
Mind,” Evan’s lyrics reflect off Cody’s harpsichord-esque loop like dusty
sunlight: It’s no wonder the oceans moved and I feel the rain/ and it feels
like doom/ but it’s lovely just the same/ these revelations in front of me/ but
I didn’t see the signs/ and I’m feeling you/ You’re my only piece of mind. <o:p></o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>            </span><o:p></o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal">These songs are thoughtfully created and definitely worth a
listen while coming down from a good night. The Analog Affair is a band worth
keeping an eye on. <o:p></o:p>

They have found themselves at a sort of musical crossroads, ever-striving to improve, evolve, transcend...and discover better superlatives.
