I Mind: First of all, this piano groove is straight "Everything In It's Right Place" by Radiohead - definitely dig that considering it's one of my favorite tunes of theirs. The only lyric in this song is "I mind" chopped and screwed a bunch of different ways. I really dig it, the different places James ventures into are really cool. He goes from dark, to ethereal, to almost an African type feel, then slowed down to a mellow hip ho groove - very cool. Really dig this track.
Measurements: This is very much a gospel tune, and this boy has got some soul. It's interesting to hear gospel with this electronic feel backing it, I wouldn't think that I would like it, but James does it very tastefully. The harmonies on this are really beautiful, but that's no surprise seeing as James has proved himself to be a master at those. Especially towards the ends, when it's a cappella, and the harmonies are just rich and full. Beautiful, beautiful track.
Tep and the Logic: The final track to this awesome album is simply a groove. There's a little sample of James' voice, but that's the only vocal on the track. By only having the groove the focus on, it gives the listener a final idea of James' production aesthetic, which is has proven to be amazing. Very cool ending track to a really amazing album.
