Funk was being born little by little around this time, and this is a sample of the first great works of the genre. The sound of the instrumentation (perfectly interpreted and complemented) on this album is from relaxing to powerful and some riffs and grooves, the accompaniments and the melodies are great.
Honestly, I think this album deserves more attention.
Honestly, it has taken me forever to listen to this album. The bases in general seem very uninteresting to me, as well as the lyrics, I don't find anything that gives a personal or unique touch in this album, apart than that there isn't much contrast or variety between the songs.
An album to blow your mind with the quality of production, sampling, lyrics and vocals of Danny and Peggy while you have a laugh with their songs. Fat bangers loose throughout the album, strange but entertaining tracks, others very interesting... A very good job by two of the most important artists of this subgenre in recent years.
JPEGMAFIA still hasn't come down from his throne, the quality of his albums is still as good and enveloping as ever. On this album I notice that the structure is a little less consistent than on his previous project, but the production, transitions between tracks and its peggy touch leave you with your brain in another part of the universe.
Great album, this guy doesn't disappoint.
The only solo album of her entire career it feels totally fresh, a perfect fusion of soul, rnb, hip-hop and other genres. Unique and tough drum bases tied together with admirable harmonies and structures, choruses and other perfectly performed elements. This album is entertaining although it deals with interesting themes in its lyrics.
Banger after banger, to this day this album feels new, compact and complete.
Boards of Canada, from their first album, give us a deep look at the most beautiful, nostalgic and vibey side of 90s IDM. A relaxing record, perfect for driving at night, but complex, varied and ingenious from the moment you enter it.
Within the genre, one of the most polished, well-produced and immortal jewels that can be found.
From the intro of Bring Da Ruckus to Wu-Tang 7th Chamber, this album just keeps going through this 90's boom bap flow.
Thick and fresh beats accompanied by samples of pianos and other instruments that give it a unique vibe, even samples from samurai movies that give it a peculiar but personal aesthetic.
And if we start talking about the bars of each of the members we would never end, from the first album the entire group demonstrates their great skills in rhyming, rhythm and flow in their ... read more
The treatment of samples and the creation of soundscapes and colors from them in this album is completely wonderful, while still being punchy and strange. Thinking of this album as a brother of Veteran, this project feels more settled and compact even, with more interesting elements but less bangers. Likewise, this album has been a beautiful, fun and weird experience at the same time.
Kanye suddenly loses all his originality, ambition and innovation when it comes to making a project with this, creating the most boring, simplistic and static album of his entire career.
Literally nothing interesting happens on the entire album, there is no beat, melody or bar that is memorable, no song is more or less powerful or moving than the previous one. The production at least continues to make it sound good as far as possible, but it is a project where we see the lack of everything ... read more
Miles embarks on a new sound journey in his career for 38 minutes, 2 tracks, where the most important thing is the textures, the unity of the group and being able to express himself as best as possible through the instrument. One of the trumpeter's best projects in terms of concepts, compactness and timbre, and the best of 60s jazz.
This project is as experimental as it is slappy, one of the best hip-hop albums of 2018 in my opinion. Beats and samples very well worked and very interesting, more lyrics like those of his previous project but improving, wrapping and hard production, more union between the songs... There are truly gems within this compact tracklist, JPEG marking ground.
Peggy's debut album starts off hard, it doesn't disappoint for a second with its inventive and experimental beats. He creates this work from different inspirations and a need to exploit every single track with his energy. We travel through abstract tracks, bangers and some more dispensable songs, but at the end of the day it's worth listening to.
This is literally the fun in album form, this is the most frenetic and entertaining psychedelic jazz rock you can hear! Brilliant solos, great tracks, very original elements, a very successful fusion point and practically perfect rapport within the band.
I honestly don't see why so much hate is put on this album when Tyler has much more boring, simple and absurd projects. Let's see, it's not a work of art, but there are many good bases, fusions of neo-soul with the style that characterized Tyler in his previous albums (sometimes better or worse produced), songs and interesting moods... The lyrics will be less elaborate than in Wolf but I find more movement and variety in this album than in their previous ones.
Tyler continues to evolve little by little and offers us an album that is somewhat dark like his predecessors but with more musical richness, a little better production and more depth in the lyrics and concept of the album. It is still a somewhat dull record and it is very likely that during some moments you will get bored listening to it, but without a doubt this is already a much more decent album
I honestly can't listen to this album, it seems so boring, absurd and poorly produced that my ears can't stand it. The lyrics are very static, a bit silly, and the beats don't help. Goblin is like Bastard, but he has just ruined what was previously decent.
The lyrics of this album deal with personal topics from the point of view of Tyler and other characters, sometimes seriously and sometimes as a joke, which gives it dynamism and entertainment. This album is mainly based on the lyrics, or you could say it just focuses on it, because the beats and musical bases of this album seem very boring and repetitive to me.
Miles Davis is already beginning a new stage that is somewhat more experimental and abstract but, at the same time, with this album he ends the totally acoustic sound in his discography. Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter have very important roles, they offer the essence and sound that the songs need, and Ron Carter together with Tony Williams support each of the tracks offering the layers and contrasts they need.
In general, it seems to me to be a somewhat dispensable album but I don't detract ... read more
The second volume of Pedro Iturralde's great work, Paco de Lucía and company does not disappoint, maintaining its position but, in my opinion, with a little less variety and movement Still, it sounds authentic, from the heart!
