Album reviews

Two LPs, the full reviews will be appearing in the next iDJ magazine....

Example
What We Almost Made
(All The Chats)
Great beats but what on earth is this Streets-affiliated UK scene face rapping about? Girls, girls girls..... Yawn. 2 Live Crew split up years ago fella.

James Pants
Welcome
(Stones Throw)
A kind of modern twist on the retro digital funk age of the 80s from this Washington State-based producer, with echoes of later period George Clinton, Cameo, Rick James, Rockit-era Herbie Hancock and Juan Atkins' electro project Cybotron. Excellent and original.
