The Proximity Effect is the second studio album by Laki Mera and their first release from the Just Music label. Released in May 2011, the album was well-received, being described in The Sunday Times as "a dense folktronic architecture with an intricacy and subtlety that recalls the Blue Nile, Cocteau Twins and Portishead."[1] The single, "Fool", from the album was named The Daily Record's single of the week.[3]
