2.5 averageYou should pay me to tell you what to listen to, really | October 10th 16

couple great tracks on this tell me that she can (and hopefully will) do better. Most is contrived, overcomplicated and not-fun, which is a shame because when it clicks it can be a more than interesting listen. Overall feels like a failed experiment. Cover is amazing, another contender for cover of the year.

2.5 averageTheManMachine | August 28th 16

Bell's playful sass and pushing of the electro-pop envelope intrigue, but the beats often seem far too eager to eschew cohesion for abstraction+eccentricity, and usually the result comes off labored and lumbering more than it does engaging or felicitous. Potential abounds but it seldom gels here -- not looking for total uniformity or nothin', but some more solidity would go a long way. Doing away with the pesty pitch-shifts and hackneyed house hi-hats would too, methinks.
