Reviews & Discussion
Sounding more like a stripped down, minimalistic approach to Flying Lotus' style of abstract hip-hop, I have a hard time believing this EP is classified under Dubstep; not that I mind, personally.
It holds many of rhythmic touches that seems signature of other dubstep releases I've heard, as well as its UK Garage predecessor, but loses the gimmicky wobbling bass and overall feeling of needing to prove how "amazingly aggressive and hardcore" I've found to permeate the genre.
Props to James Blake on making some extremely chill, extremely enjoyable tracks. If you can find a copy, do yourself a favor and add it to your collection.
