Maria También is driven by Mark Speer's reverb-soaked guitar, which spins Middle Eastern-inflected melodies over a deep, tight groove. His tone is bright and spacious, with a surf-like shimmer, and his phrasing uses quick ornaments and modal note choices that give the lines an exotic flavour. The bass and drums lock into a steady pulse, letting the guitar dance freely on top. It captures Khruangbin's blend of global influences and laid-back funk.
