PRAISE FOR APHASIA:

"Stakes a firm claim for BLM's position as one of the top labels out there... Strikes a proper balance between lyricism and production as opposed to obsessively focusing on the former in the absence of the latter... A nice depth of sound, which leads to an immersive listening experience, heavy beats deftly drawing you in... Luscious, hypnotic... Tortuously deep flows."
- Dylan Orchard, for The Creative Uncommons

"Two words: Fuck Yeah... Stalking through the shadows cast by spoken word, hip-hop, dubstep and trip/hop electronica, Aphasia worms its way into the hindbrain and whispers dark secrets in dissambled language... Aphasia's still not easy listening; Texture's abstract, bookworm approach to MCing demands intellectual fascination with density and obtuseness."
- Liam Arnold, Team Little Rock / Shallow Rave

"... A shimmering slick of cyberpunk hip-hop...These four tracks are fan-fucking-tastic. Impact doubles as a Black Lantern primer, with Texture and Harlquinade’s razor-sharp, dystopian verses barrelling over Asthmatic Astronaut’s hip-hop noir. While Texture is backed by longtime collaborator Morphamish on Distance, his own instrumental tracks are brilliant works, mesmeric and evocative. The gradual expanse of melody and phrasing of the kinetic Ram Dass in particular excites me... Go and download it immediately."
