Burial

[kid cue]

another thing i like about Burial is that i don't think he's mentioned a single artist or track that isn't jungle/dnb or garage/dubstep. it's a really narrow pool of music to draw from, and yet his music is infinitely rich. if anything it seems to focus his work because the vibe he's after is so particular. this is pretty refreshing in light of so many artists bragging about how many different records they grew up on (which their own music doesn't live up to). it's like, influences aren't necessarily additive; it's more important to have a clear head about what you're doing.

(sigh .. i think i only have 3 of those tunes)
