#1521 RL Grime - VOID

More demo reel than listen proper, RL Grime lays out the ambient builders, the climactic bangers, the latenight jams but never assembles them into a show-shaped arc. It's like the scene where the sniper's laid out all his parts on a big sheet on the clock tower without the actual snap snap bang bang.

There's plenty of big fat synths, trappy beats, and of course everything's a little slurred cause that's how 2014 rolls - nothing that overmuch moves me, especially when there's so little attention paid to making an album of it 2.5/5
