I didn't get as much Pharoah as I'd have liked, but this is still really great for those late nights where you slowly down the 4th cocktail, staring into the void and wondering where it all went wrong.
It's a nice sounding album for sure but I just don't see where the heaps of praise are coming from.

To me I liked it but I felt that it took forever for it to progress, like three songs in there were probably 8ish notes pharoah even plays, but I did like Floating Points contribution and I like their future garage stuff pretty well also.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Yeah same. I honestly feel like a real outlier when it comes to electronic music in general because it sounds like if you do anything with less than 118 BPM everyone loses their mind. Same thing with the last few Nick Cave records. Like, what is this ****? If I play notes, hold them over other random electronic noises, suddenly I'm a genius.

I'm happy to sit this zeitgeist out.
