lol I know Distal irl but only learned this week that he was a "serious" musician this week when a friend posted the pfk review on fb, wtf @ me right?

i like french fries! i like both addison groove and distal, i just feel like they look silly. if i could sum it up, i might say distal : ed banger :: addison groove : bathing ape. or i might say distal : ninja tune :: addison groove : mo'wax. i am predisposed to like addison groove because when i was young i lusted after freestyle bikes and those shoes. addison groove looks like he wants an ice cream, distal looks like he wants breast milk.
i also like their european take on juke and footwork music. people accuse it of being empty and thin but its just effectively spaced out. like the music of these cerebral and malnourished young creepers

i was also going to point out that i appreciated their refreshingly intelligent and open-minded alterative to the narrow-minded focus of urban american vernacular dance musics

i particularly like what distal's doing with ghettotech, there was a moment when dj assault almost turned into ltj bukem and some stuff i can't find youtubes of like "boca ratawn" reminds me of that

That's good too but not as good by a mile.
I think I just have a bias against post-flying lotus phased synth chords at this point. They make everything sound more ~studied~ than they would otherwise.

Are people saying Distal's stuff is a 'european take on juke' or am I just to tired? He's from Atlanta right?
