Overgrown (Deluxe Edition)

Overgrown, is a hypnotizing foray from an artist whose influences have grown from the subtle, futuristic textures of his eponymous 2011 debut to embrace everything from gospel choirs to post-dubstep. With Overgrown, Blake further expands his omnivorous influences and yields eclectic results—from a hip-hop track featuring RZA (“Take a Fall for Me”) to a piano ballad that foregoes synths and electronics entirely (“DLM”). Overgrown is challenging but accessible, confidently pacing through a multifaceted garden blooming with complex electronic layers, styles, and emotions.
