Its a good nostalgic sound of quality music. With that being said its a sad reality that the pop music industry cant create new content. I was 100% sure that I'm listening to an unreleased compilation album made by 2Pac, Next, Justin Timberlake, James Brown, Prince and Michael Jackson.
Its a good album and you will spin it a few times and it will get boring pretty fast because it doesn't have its own sound or face.
Its surely not the typical Jack White album, but damn it has presence. Its like a mixture of a Prince, Santana, Pink Floyd with influence of rock opera, electro funk and garage blues. It will require some time to digest.
I divided this album into two sides. The 4 instrumentals and the 6 non-instrumentals. I absolutely loved all the songs with the vocals. The instrumentals on other hand felt like soundtrack music for adventure movies or atari games.

Cassius bringing an uplifting, 80's cheesy sax sounds, the easy listening Ibifornia. Its melodic, full of collaborations with great artists like Mike D from the Beastie Boys, great vocal additions by Cat Power, Pharrell, Portugal. The Man. Its a summer album, too bad it got released at the end of August.
This is definitely a new sound from Jim James. Its chill, its slow, its hip, its melodic, its moody, its psychedelic. Its as almost this album was produced by Beck, written by Zero 7, performed by Jim James and edited by The Flaming Lips.
