Andy Stott has managed to stay ahead of the pack, constantly reinventing himself in an era that has proven to be quick to judge an artist's new work as "disappointing" or "dated". Since his emergence in the mid-2000s, Stott has consistently been an innovator and driving force in electronic music, developing a number of styles that have been labeled "UK bass", "microhouse", "post-r&b", etc. "Too Many Voices" was released in April 2016, and may be the UK producer's most accessible work to date, and his strongest work since 2012's "Luxury Problems". "New Romantic" demonstrates Stott's recent progression from sparse, brooding and atmospheric r&b into a more urban sound, with a fat and dirty bassline accented with crispy, sparkling synths.
