The album, available for streaming and download on Bandcamp, showcases the artist’s ability to fuse indie, alternative pop, and rock elements with a DIY aesthetic.

The album’s title, “Technostalgia,” suggests a longing for past technologies and eras, which is reflected in the music’s retro undertones.
