This J-term, Harvard students will be scattered across the globe—traveling, working, catching up on seasons of TV shows, or otherwise taking a much-needed hiatus from the feverish pace of campus life. Among those who are choosing to remain in Cambridge, however, are 20 undergraduates who will be taking part in a unique opportunity: the American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.)

This featureless quality of the new album’s soundscape is especially bizarre given the experience the boys were racking up on hiatus. After releasing their two studio albums—“Quiet Is the New Loud” and “Riot on an Empty Street”—as well as a remix compilation featuring high-profile guest artists like Four Tet and Ladytron, the two friends parted ways for a few years to pursue other priorities. Øye packed his bottle-cap glasses and scruff aesthetic off to Berlin, where...
