"Daydreams on Wax has seemed like a more suitable name for George Evelyn's primary outlet for the majority of its existence. It's more apt than ever for Shape the Future, an album typified by serene, earth-loving optimism, even when romantic heartache is in play. Working without longtime creative partner Robin Taylor-Firth, Evelyn -- helped by a fairly large cast of co-writers, fellow producers, and instrumentalists, including some familiar associates and a string section -- still mixes up downtempo, reggae, and soul from a hip-hop perspective with an easygoing disposition. House kingpin Kenny Dope contributes to two tracks, including "Gotta Smile," a finely woven track that grooves and synthesizes analog and electronic elements like nothing else in Evelyn's discography. The headiest trip of all is "Typical," a smart late-'60s throwback ballad fronted by Jordan Rakei -- a Marvin Gaye-modeled Australian who didn't exist when Evelyn left his first major imprint on underground dance music."
