Listen: How to Dress Well - "Total Loss" Full LP Stream

Wow big day for streams as Brooklyn’s Tom Krell, aka How To DressWell, returns with Total Loss, officially due September 18th.  We got a full LP stream you can  listen to right now. So far “Cold Nites” is my personal favorite on the record, showcasing the trademark ghostly, deconstructed R&B with great results. On a side note “Say My Name or Say Whatever” seems to use the same sample as Onomatopoeia’s very own contributor, Red Cup! Damn you about a year behind son!
