The good news: I'm back from Australia, and the jet lag is a thing of the past. Oh, and I wasn't attacked by a shark or kangaroo!
The bad news: It's been cold af here in Montreal.
The album weaves and winds between frantic breakdowns, slow melodramatic grooves, lush pads, the rush of strings and skits somewhat reminiscent of old hip hop records. The drums at times pay homage to jungle and breakbeat culture, whilst the jazzy layers are symbolic of the role which funk and soul has played in both artists musical spehere.
This is an album which wholeheartedly makes sense, the influence is clear, the sound diverse. It's London, very much in the present, a little bit of everything.
