i'm pretty sure ifan daffyd is james blake's flatmate, i was doing a little ep recently and the label guys were getting Ifan to do a remix, i had no idea who he was but they said he was James blake's flatmate. they're definitely not the same person but i wouldnt be surprised if they made tunes together/vocals on each others tunes or something

I can't get to the end of 'no good'. It's a pretty much unlistenable and dull mess.

Guy clearly has some chops, and whether he's a cousin or flatmate he's obviously spent some time around Mr B. It's actually too similar in style and tone (without being shite) to just be a a knock off. I'd wager he had a hand in the CMYK EP maybe?
Either way I quite like both No Good and Miranda, although they don't blow me away exactly.
But if he finds his feet in a style that's his own (not meant as a criticism) then he could do some serious damage. Also, welsh names are cool.

I don't like the idea there's a second Blake... I don't know why, but it struggles me!
I love Blake in ways nobody ever can understand, so I like this iffan tunes to... But yeah, I can't stand Blake nor Burial 'copycats' (sorry for that word)!
But yah, big up for that ifan guy. He certainly knows how to produce a good tune!
