Absolutely flawless. Perfectly and expressive. Absolutely gorgeous. Simple and elegant.
discogs_ Dec 30, 2020
I don't like this fragile cover material. It dents and stains easily.
guzzer Feb 22, 2020
Its quite extraordinary the variety and quality of the music that the "I'm New Here" sessions have produced. I really liked the original album and the Jamie XX remixes, but this takes it to a whole new level
