He always has the best support acts
Remember you like whoever the support was when I saw him the first time, can’t recall the name though as it was pretty bad/ungoogleable
Gabby’s World (or Eskimeaux)
… so it was the album name that was a bit forgettable then
(O.K.)
Glad I gave this new one some time, I love it
Cross The Sea in particular makes me feel things
No Bitterness is so good, when it breaks into that second half riding the drums - sublime
You know he’s playing Leeds on the March your?
Bought my ticket the day they went on sale ![]()
Record’s comfortably his best imho. Can’t wait for the tour.
Not sure it makes his top 3 for me and that’s no slight on the album!
Excited to have more time with it, when I saw him in august only the singles had been released so the rest was fun but a bit lost on me
Wish I liked this more but there are some lyrical themes that annoy me. It’s not grabbing me much musically, either, but I’m due a revisit in the coming weeks.
Guys, I really loved DSU years ago but I’ve not listened to anything he’s done since that. Anyone care to make me a playlist?
50 mins, kept it to 4 tracks from each album, just in chronological order so I’d say stick it on shuffle. He’s gone down some fun odd genre paths too which you get in the full albums, but I stuck to the best standout songs here really
Ahhh, brilliant, thank you ![]()
DSU > Trick >>>>>>>> Everything else
Ah, mate
Still don’t quite get on board with this guy, as hard as I’ve tried to like him
Objectively it’s the kind of thing I think I should like. He’s clearly got some chops, is steeped in a kinda 90s slackerdom that I’m a sucker for, seems like a GBOL, etc
But beyond a tune or two on each record, most of it doesn’t really land for me. Some of it’s positively annoying, which is problematic (ie. every record has a number of things that are not simply mediocre enough to wash over you, but are annoying enough to call to action the need to skip). A lot of the autotune/vocal pitching he does makes me feel kinda queasy
Liiiike, that tiny desk thing just posted is great, IMHO he could do with stripping the contrived production idiosyncrasies down a bit on record, they’re a bit tedious
But then, I mean wtf do I know, he seems to be doing alright for himself, eh
Love me some contrived production idiosyncrasies personally
