This album's great, one verse tracks definitely make it feel like one long song and the instrumental tracks really carry the project. It never drags and plays great straight through, trying to think of some other producer albums to compare it to, but I'm drawing a blank. He accomplished exactly what he set out to do.

Its like you can feel the Stones Throw influence that ALC picked up by working with Oh No so heavily. He actually did a better job with this concept type of album than Oh No has.

Is the quality supposed to be kind of lo-fi and dirty sounding? Or did I get a bad rip?

Can one of our Lithuanian/Russian posters translate the lyrics here? I'm digging this a fucking lot but I wanna know what they're singing about.

Copped this the other day. Hoping he puts out the French Blends on vinyl as well. Taken Madlibs spot over the last few years with these conceptl albums.
