    More Is Than Isn’t balances vocals with lyricless tracks but at the heart of it all is RJD2’s strength in producing impressive music.

    While the vocal tracks are well-realized, this is the first album RJ's made in a long time that actually feels like it's satisfied to say most of what it has to say in instrumental form.

    Overall, it’s great to see a beloved artist do what they love doing best, while sticking to their principles and musical aesthetic, because these elements are clearly audible in the music.

    RJD2′s creations are beautiful offshoots of their distorted components rather than monster mashes.

    Even if More Is Than Isn't doesn't flow as well as his previous efforts, this everything-and-the-kitchen-sink experience is dazzling, always leaving the listener wondering what might come next.

    The record feels experimental and alive because of it. That unpredictability breeds some missteps but for the most part the album is peppered with pleasant, sometimes unsettling surprises.

    A decent addition to his discography, More Is Than Isn't could use more dance beats and much more P. Blackk.

    More Is Than Isn't showcases an artist refusing to learn from prior mistakes and not yet ready to capitalize on his past achievements.
