controversial, but uhh...i dont see whats so great about those Logos tracks. It's just the sounds Wiley used 10 year ago with a really sparse mix. I liked Cloudbursting, but the rest is just playing off GRIME REVIVAL mania without really adding anything new.

it is actually the sparseness that does it for me
there's so little going on, it really shouldn't work but it does

yeah i'd definitely like to see a return of more of those sparse atmospheres in grime instrumentals, im not knocking it for that.
its just a very fine line between tension, and just space filled with those same old samples re-arranged. It's not that i dont rate Logos at all, just would like to see it taken a bit further. Same reason why i prefer the older zomby dubs compared to his latest 'eski' ones, 5emt3x etc. were all nods to old Grime while still introducing something fresh.
Kowloon 1 is really decent as well tho, actually thought it was one of those unreleased Zomby dubs since it was on that Dusk and Blackdown showcase.
