Comment:
it is a huge, 41-track 2 disc-compilation by a Baltimore, US-based
artist CM aka Creative Radio
who can be considered a resident on an imprint called blocSonic due
to a shitloads of releases and collaborative acts by him over there.
Under the recent name C da 76er it is his debut outing. Despite of
providing 41 tracks in total it clocks in an 80 minute because most
of the compositions are considered just
snippets. On the other side,
a listener probably is not tempted to tear off
any single track from the
whole. Mostly it is an instrumental case though his instrumental
spectre used to extend over many styles and phenomena though the main
staple is pinpointed on hip-hop/rap. These
snippets are usually entitled due to the instrument or attitude being
predominant within the course. Lyrics are mostly over there to convey
his ideas about producing the music (for instance, by employing a
Casio keyboard). Since
Flying Lotus appeared on the music scene (especially with
Cosmogramma
(2010, Warp))
(experimental) hip-hop
got popularized otherwise
than before and has been
changed significantly. Lots
of skiddy lo-fi and DIY aesthetics-ridden elements are mingled within
the whole. All in all, the whole is interesting though it is not as
favourable as his issues under the nom de plume Creative (Radio)
because it is like listening
and seeing a kitchen side to produce music. The final product used to
be more interesting than just listening to the middle, instrumental
parts of it. A bit of skeleton-alike.
