Review:
First of all let me say that this is a fantastic album. Seldom do you get an album with such a high quality of music and I mean both audio and artistic quality.
The main line of the music is break beats, sometimes with an Acid Jazz flavor and sometimes a little more abstract (ala IDM) sound. The majority of the tracks are laid back and chilled with only a few tracks that have harsh sounds and have a more moderately paced tempo. I must admit i did find one or two of them out of place, but this is a showcase album after all and variety should be expected.
The track "class of '98: old, fat, broken" is haunting with a super thick ambience that will almost drive you to tears with emotion. It really hit a note with me, so to speak.
The second CD can be a little abstract if you are not in the right frame of mind. But i urge you to download and listen to the first CD at least. Let me know what you think of the Ken & Ryu track ;)
And remember ... Share the good music with everyone you know.
