History
Midnight Pine began as the soundtrack for an independent film. The group aimed for a quieter sound than the previous disc The Careless Flame, avoiding ambient noise or electric guitar. DJ Stephen "Anatomy" Lewis told Paris-based website PopNews that the move to a quieter sound reflected his own nocturnal habits: "I live at night. This explains why I spend a lot of time alone and quiet, which has made my music more meditative and nocturnal. Midnight Pine reflects this."
Reception
French rap website Hiphopcore called Midnight Pine "much more peaceful and subdued" than the " ubiquitous musical chaos" of Careless Flame, and said that Anatomy's jazz-inspired beats seemed "calmer than usual to dress up the dark, almost whispered stories of Crescent Moon in the most beautiful way."
