One of my favourite albums (that my stupid brain has never allowed me to listen to all the way through in a single sitting) is 1991's 'Foxbase Alpha' by Saint Etienne. It's perfect. But luckily for me, they are one of the best singles bands that this country has ever produced. Smash after smash for decades now. New track 'Pond House' shares a lot in common with that early material. It's a simple repetitive vocal sample laid over melodic chords and beats, but as is usually the case with their stuff, it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
