Style: vaporwave, barber beats
Primary Emotions/Themes: A continuation of the excellent Raw Practices vol 1, second verse same as the first
Thoughts: Modest by Default continues his series of ethereal barber beats with Vol 2 of Raw Practices. While I thought the first volume was an excellent entry into the barber beats field, I can't help but think that the second volume overstays its welcome by just a bit.
There isn't much here to differentiate it from the first volume, and what is here feels more generic than the first volume. Sure the atmosphere is still there from time to time, but it's not on every track like I had come to expect... and that is the main crux of my disappointment.
While volume 2 is still a decent album, when it comes between the two releases on vinyl I highly prefer the first entry. Modest by Default has multiple other records that are excellent, however this is not among their best.
