Fifty-word review

Compass

Borrow It

Sounding more like a Warp record, Compass swirls with off-beat blips and darker tones. It's smooth and soulful - trouble is he doesn’t sound fully committed. Jamie sometimes relies on his voice to carry him through atrocious beats. Make a love album for aliens or humans—nobody likes an indecisive groove.
