The 2019 album "Highway Hypnosis" found Sneaks continuing their mission to disrupt and dismantle with minimal-key, maximalist synth-funk. The album's raw sound and direct lyrical approach stand in contrast to the more polished production of Jones's other work.
- The album was released on January 25, 2019, by Merge Records.
- The album was recorded in Atlanta, Georgia.
- This album was released during a period of renewed interest in Reagan-era synth-funk.
Sneaks is the Reagan-era alter ego of Atlanta-based synth-funk producer Crystal Jones. While Jones's work as Sneaks is characterized by its lo-fi, Casio-driven sound and socially critical lyrics, this project has remained a relatively niche concern.
