Crawl space

"Penultimate track "Your World" is perhaps the most forward-thinking item here; with the unusual mash of R&B and dream pop, it offers something novel, where some other parts of the album do have a tendency to be a touch heavy on paying homage to styles past. But the sounds and homages on offer are diverse enough that this is a minor quibble with what should otherwise be held up as a model debut album".

"A product of Argentina, Colombia, Canada and Boston's Berklee College of Music, as a child Tei Shi would force herself into a crawl space to conquer her fear of the dark. Overcoming obstacles remains a theme on her seductive debut album. Tarantulas stud the video for Keep Running, a slice of breathy R&B pop. Previously known for her 2015 single Bassically, Tei Shi isn't technically an indie artist any more, but her bijou brand of left-field R&B shares space with Chairlift or Little Dragon. The atmosphere is one of glacial sultriness laced with small surprises (Creep's horns; childhood self-recordings), but Tei Shi's lyrics interrogate love and its permutations with elegance, and her South American heritage emerges on the Spanish-language Como Si".

"On the subject of Crawl Space, Teicher has said that she wanted the album to express her individuality; she seems not only to have chased that goal but to have pulled it off. Loaded with vocal hooks, sassy, R&B-infused performances, and textured, groove-powered tunes, it's a hypnotic set that's definitely got its own thing going on".
