Is James Blake overrated?

Everyone goes on about him way too much and I don't see the big deal. What do you guys think.

I don't believe he'll ever have mass appeal, but I think he's an incredible producer. It's a style out on it's own really, most producers just wouldn't be able to make stuff like his, probably because he's classically trained

, innit. I eagerly await any and all releases.

He's far from overrated. I'd say that his music steps pretty far outside EDM & dubstep altogether. Musically its just brilliant to listen to.

Look I found her, red coat...

I listened to this track 100+ times

I agree with plasmic...far from overrated.

The changes remix is a religious experience...

Definitely not overrated. An acquired taste? Maybe. Personally I think he's an amazing producer and thought his set at DMZ on Friday was ace.

He can't structure a song and they don't go anywhere.

I really enjoy what he is doing, dont think he is overated at all, but thats my opinion.
