Cirrus (song)

The song premiered on Giles Peterson's BBC Radio 6 show on 19 January 2013.

A writer for Fact magazine called the track "a twinkling slice of fairy-light house", noting it to be "delicate" while also containing a "slightly steelier edge" that deviates from his style.

[7] Jason Grishkoff from Indie Shuffle found the song "pursuing the same sound" of his previous four albums, characterizing it as "absolutely perfect" for San Francisco rain.

[8] Phillip Yung of Earmilk stated the track "immediately" gives the listener "a spacey organic feel" and found the slide bass during the middle to give it "much anticipated weight",[9] while Amy Heaton of Kaltblut magazine wrote the song was "the perfect soundtrack" to come out of hibernation to, calling it "one big loop of elation".

[15] Critical reception for the video has been positive; Kimber Streams of The Verge called it "beautifully surreal",[5] whereas Oli Kruscher of DropoutUK said that it "would slot smoothly into Monty Python's world [and] will take you on a mind-bending trip".

The music video manipulates footage from the 1962 film, American Thrift (opening title pictured) .
