Reviews
- R&S Records: In Order to Dance XI
"The techno/old-school undercurrent will sit nicely in the basement raves" - Thundercat: The Golden Age of Apocalypse
Thundercat is big thoughts condensed into deliberate concepts, executed with full commitment - Evidence: Cats & Dogs
Few albums go to such extraordinary lengths to please the listener as Evidence's brilliant new album. - Clipse: Hell Hath No Fury
The album rides down the fine line that separates the superficial and the conscious, ignorance and awareness—and it leans both ways. - Roots Manuva Meets Wrongtom – Duppy Writer
"A new release from Roots Manuva is always something to celebrate." - Fat Freddy’s Drop: Live At The Roundhouse
Whether you drop this with a bunch of best mates or late night on your own allow Dallas and the boys to infiltrate your personal digs. - Paul White – Paul White & The Purple Brain
With The Purple Brain, Paul White has accomplished something very tricky: he’s retained the feeling of newness. - Delusionists – Prolusion Plus
You can eat lamb rogan josh for your entire life and still come across one that blows your mind when you were least expecting it. Such is the case with this hip-hop album - Nasir Jones & Damian Marley – Distant Relatives
It may be one of the better albums you’ll hear this year but the story behind Nas's and Marley's new album is dark - Lorn: Nothing Else
"Less metaphysical than FlyLo’s Cosmogramma, Lorn’s debut album Nothing Else is conceptually bound to the calamitous theme of armed conflict."
