don't get how people reduce his current artistry into some watered down "go back to pop" discourse. you have so much to uproot from his work... and his pop excellence is there already! one of the best in the game! come on, man...

who knows. to me its like yet another case of grown man hating on things he did in his youth, but it could be anything else. nevertheless i respect his decision

think he got tired of working on other ppl's music (re:producing wilco and tons of others) + sick of the music business in general ; he's now happy in his niche, doing his thing

also would recommend his string of collaborative albums on Mego, really entrancing work. rhythmic with Oren Ambarchi, drony and quiet with Kassel Jaeger, drony and LOUD with Fennesz (this one may be my fav, use to fall asleep blasting it in my earbuds on the train)

ну я хуй знает ребята. когда мне прямо супер хуёво и отвратительно, я включаю халфвей ту э тривей и мне становится легче и лучше, но когда мне хорошо и пиздато он на меня действует как смерть любимой бабушки. я склонен думать, что это показатель крутости, потому что джим определённо гипер крут
