"Depreston" comes from Courtney Barnett's 2015 album, Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit, and it's a slow, unhurried shuffle that takes its sweet time. Barnett wrote it alone and produced it with Dan Luscombe and Burke Reid, who also engineered, and the two of them mixed it with a light touch that leaves her deadpan voice right at your ear. It's the kind of song that sneaks up on you: nothing much seems to happen, and then it's lodged in your head for a week.
