Comment: This fascinating 5-track EP was initially released by the 16 Wersòw label in 2009. Now it can be grabbed from the band`s site only. And it is really worth to do it. Variegated trip-hop/and at times frenziedly bouncing breakbeat breaks meet obsessive mc-ing, all of that is accomplished with a wide array of jazz styles (from Miles Davis-alike cool jazz-y trumpet-relied floating to more freely and frenetic incantations), at the same time getting wrapped up in highly atmospheric and murky ambience respectively. A urban music gem indeed.
