Oct 19, 2011It does feel like the melding Icebird does of electronic elements with blues, soul, and rock is a progressive move.
-
Oct 21, 2011Unquestionably, this is one of the most complete works of music made this year, and absolutely speaks volumes about what cohesiveness and attention to detail can do for a project.
-
Oct 14, 2011h parties click together because they're willing to let genre be an afterthought, yet they still avoid succumbing to a rootless, stylistically overreaching identity crisis.

Jan 18, 2012A playful, thoughtful, catchy-as-hell pop record.

Oct 14, 2011RJD2's collaboration with Philly singer Aaron Livingston bears the qualities that have divided the instrumental hip-hop producer's fans since the 2006 misfire The Third Hand -- most prominently, jazz-rock ellipses and thin, expressive vocals (Livingston's are only slightly better than RJ's own efforts).

Oct 14, 2011Overall, The Abandoned Lullaby is a texturally interesting marriage of genres, but hardly a unique one. As solid as the music sounds, it's just not special enough to crave, making this collaboration rather forgettable.
-
Nov 22, 2011Ultimately, The Abandoned Lullaby is at least worth hearing for RJD2 fans, although musically it's really only a lateral move.
