Drake’s new surprise dance album is his dreariest yet.
“A collection of profound and epic album reviews and musical articles by former astronaut and brain surgeon, Alasdair Kennedy. Reaching levels of poetry that rival Keats and Blake, the following reviews affirm Alasdair to be a prodigy, a genius and a god whose opinion is always objectively right. He is also without a doubt the most modest man in the universe.” - Alasdair Kennedy

Review of 'Star Wars Headspace'
‘I have a bad feeling
about this’ was my initial thought on this album, to quote my dad on his
wedding day.

Review of 'Caracal' by Disclosure
The warm chords are back as found on ‘Hourglass’. And the percussion
is still as old skool as before, as evident on ‘Jaded’. This is undoubtedly the
same UK EDM bro duo that gave us Settle. But where is the energy?

Review of 'The Church' by Mr. Oizo
Patience is a virtue that I sadly don’t have. Whilst I can
see the appeal of atmospheric electronic musicians like Jon Hopkins and the
Haxan Cloak, I often find myself clockwatching during the big long build-ups.
An artist like loopy French house producer, Mr. Oizo, is much more up my street.
He doesn’t allow time to breath, let alone check a watch. Employing AD/HD
pacing, he cuts out the foreplay and assaults the listener from the off.

Review of 'Michael' by Les Sins
Ex-chillwave-producer Chaz Bundick has dropped the ‘Toro y
Moi’ pseudonym in exchange for ‘Les Sins’ and is now making more up-tempo,
dancey stuff.

Review of 'While (1 is less than 2)' by Deadmau5
No-one was expecting the Canadian house producer and
Disney-icon-lookalike to drop an album like this.

Review of "Settle" by Disclosure
WATCH VIDEO REVIEW HERE
I've heard people
trying to classify this album into a neat genre. Is
it garage? Is it deep house? Is it dance-pop? Is it UK Funky? What even is UK funky?
