I, Robot

Benga has made the first great non-Burial dubstep album. It’s the New Forms of dubstep– a bit jazzy and, if you skip a few tracks (the good ones), demure enough for edgy StoNu dinner parties. The Promobot is on the version we have and he really sounds at home. We feel bad for the Promobot. He has that amazing auto-tune vocal (like T-Pain), is all over everyone’s album (like T-Pain), but never makes the final cut (unlike T-Pain). Has his mechanical flow been deemed too real for the common man? Who knows. Promobot is the Nick Drake of pre-release albums and his genius will not be appreciated in this lifetime.
