I don't know man, I'm not comparing two sentences that contain a similar sentiment and looking for something to cling onto just to up my comment count because I've got nothing else to lose at this point

I'm clinging onto nothing I'm pretty stable up here. Probably should've phrased the initial comment better but the point I tried to make is valid.

Not remotely. He's contextualizing the genre, not the content or quality of the music. Simply saying it's an electronic release is hardly missing anything

Sounds more like he's generalising the music under a single genre. You can't really compare this to other electronic releases if the meat of the music often doesn't fit into that grouping.

This album's probably a better album in general, but I prefer listening to the ST. I just LOVE the minimalism running through that album, whereas the sound of this one feels a lot more progressive and broad.

Honestly the minimalism is such a HUGE part of what I love about Blake's work. I'm not opposed to him moving away from that but I think he lost a bit of his charm in doing so. s/t is way better than this, though I still really like this. I'm fuckin stoked to see this dude when he rolls through my city soon though.

this would comfortably beat the s/t in a robust round of fisticuffs



the presence of RZA would help i imagine
