The Scythe - Strictly 4 The Scythe
40

Capturing the spirit of the old Memphis scene has proven to be a very difficult challenge for contemporary acts, and as demonstrated here, it still is. This project even seems aware of that fact to an extent, hence the derailing into more house-oriented influences in the latter half that reads as even less ambitious and confident. Messy and uninspired in its execution. I'd have rather listened to Zel and the gang attempt regional revival for the entire project's length than whatever ... read more

Ledbyher - The Elephant
60

The sonic blending taking place is executed better than I thought it would be. Some of its appeal fades in the latter half, but Ledbyher has a distinct artistic voice and is channeling it in an enthralling way. A more polished and thoughtful stab at jerk fusion than a good amount of her contemporaries can muster.

Sideshow - TIGRAY FUNK
80

A trippy and profound epic for greatly confusing times. Sideshow filters his critiques of contemporary society and his communal observations through a myriad of influences and styles, assembling a producer ensemble that intentionally splinters into endless directions. He manages to bridge more classical and foundational allegories and references with modern phenomena really seamlessly. A very strong showing from Sideshow, whose talent and directorial capabilities do not go to waste here.

Chris Crack - Too Late To Start Following The Rules Now
70

All of Chris' eccentricities that define him as an artist are ever-present, and his singularly charismatic presence hasn't wavered with time. The way Chris functions within these soundscapes is so clean, he really feels at home amidst the loose atmospheres that are laid out for him. An enjoyable effort from Chris, and one that manages an admirable level of consistency with his personality.

sosocamo - big country
40

Has no real areas of separation that allow any of the tracks to stand out, and sosocamo is keeping to a pocket that has no shortage of peers in it. Feels fairly unmotivated and bland.
