Well, yeah, there's that as well.
And when I call Leeb a "rip-off artist", I don't mean that he literally
sampled every note he's ever recorded. There are a good number of samples
(some more obvious than others), but a lot of it is more a generally lack
of originality. Everything seems to be stylistically derived from something
that someone else did better in the past.
