Even “On the Level,” which is almost entirely comprised of synth music, feels organic and mellow. “This Old Dog” is no exception songs like “Dreams From Yesterday” and “Sister” are a perfect balance between soft acoustics and synth. It’s a fine line to walk, but he toes it excellently without sounding over-processed or unnatural. What makes Mac so incredible to me is his ability to combine synth tones and acoustic guitar. It’s both calming and upbeat at the same time, staying true to Mac’s classic, easygoing spirit.
Looking to turn your mood around? There exist few better albums to do the trick. Out of his entire discography, “This Old Dog” stands out as epitomizing Mac’s personality the most lovable, gentle, and goofy. “This Old Dog” has to be my all-time favorite Mac DeMarco album (although “Here Comes the Cowboy” comes in a close second). BEST TRACKS: “One More Love Song,” “Moonlight on the River” and “For the First Time”
