Alex B - Moments


(7.5)

Ahhh Alex B's fantastic tripped out beats. Runner up for Flylo? Probably. This is the LP that is going to throw him into the inevitable spotlight in the coming months. Good glitch hop/downtempo molds a good amount of soul into their sound, and there is plenty of soul on this album.

One of the biggest problems with the average producer is that they just don't have enough form. It's not acid free jazz. There needs to be a certain amount of order. When it's all over the place and random as hell, it's practically ambient and defeats the "beat" aspect, which is what glitch hop is all about.

There is so much new shit happening on this album, progress the sound with Alex B
