Review

Don't listen to melon

Rival dealer is a stunningly different EP that shatters Burial's signature shadowy aesthetic with brilliant contrasts, retaining vinyl crackle and distant vocal samples while introducing an unexpectedly warm, euphoric, and cinematic palette.

I genuinely don't have a favourite track from this record because they all are so different in their own unique ways and I think that's what makes this record so special. It sort of goes against the grain of traditional music tropes in a really majestic way that still manages to keep to Burial's incredible style.
