Reviews & Discussion
SPECIAL CASES is more deep darkness from Massive Attack, with Sinead O'Connor at the vocal helm. Akufen treats the track with kid gloves at the start, keeping the lyrics intact, but halfway through, he takes his well-practiced glitch-house approach to it, doing from darkness to deepness and stuttering vocal samples. "I Against I" brings Mos Def to the fore, while the synths buzz in the background. Definitely a single for your darker moods.
