He's the cyborg Tim Buckley, and pretty much the most exciting new artist to come around this year. He could be really, really big I think.

Totally, sounds like Stevie Wonder's talk box in a fight with Sly and the Family Stone, falling downstairs and landing on a load of Ikea cushions.

Good sounds all round.

anyone hear the Synkro Electronic Explorations mix with a tune from James Blake called 'Pessimism' ? It's right at the beginning, about 5 mins in I think.

it's just lush sparse piano and beats? I'd love to get hold of that track
