Wasn't all that impressed with James Blake. Should've been right in my wheelhouse, just wasn't. Don't know what to say about it.

Also since we're going in no discernible direction I'll just say that one of my DJs reviewed the Jamie xx / Gil Scott-Heron remix album and seriously penciled in, and I'm only slightly paraphrasing here "Great beats ruined by some shitty old dude", and man I'm usually pretty chill with sound opinions but I felt exactly the opposite way (I'm New Here was fucking excellent and Jamie xx took it precisely nowhere near a place that was remotely interesting or comparable to the original album) but I had the decency to know the bare minimum about shit. Like for real what the fuck is wrong with you dude

Basically I'm saying get I'm New Here, it's amazing.

Calling Gil Scott Heron a "shitty old dude" is worthy of punishment. Especially, when comparing him at all to some dude in the xx.

I've almost finished my first cursory listen of Hold On Now, Youngster and I am all kinds of impressed.

listen to their Sticking Fingers Into Sockets EP, it's miles above the rest of their albums imho

Also I would like to point out that the combination of Sailor Moon and faux-Kerouac / Sonic Youth spelling is perhaps the purest distillation of what this forum is that we have yet been presented with.
