If you come across a teenager who is into hip-hop nowadays, it's almost a surprise if they don't understand the genre as the ultimate and dodgy mainstream between bling-bling and crunk, but appreciate hip-hop's golden era starting in the late '80s instead. With his debut album
Quipo
, Italian producer
Populous
already showed that he drew his very own conclusions from the jazzed up beats and positive vibes of the Native-Tongues movement around
A Tribe Called Quest
and
De La Soul
. Whereas
Quipo
still displayed a mildly bulky attraction influenced by abstract electronica,
Queue For Love
now has a much more homogeneous atmosphere and a warmth fed by carefully-selected samples from soul-jazz and soundtrack records from the late '60s and early '70s. Unlike the aesthetics of recent, dominating approaches to hip-hop,
Queue For Love
is a triumph of the DIY ethos. After all,
Andrea Mangia
is just a kid with a computer and an incorruptible taste.
Queue For Love
isn't pure sampledelia, though. A lot of the guitars, e-bows and glockenspiels on this album have been recorded in the bathroom of Populous' tiny student apartment. This album is smooth and balanced and hip-hop at heart, reaching out to songwriting, ambient, folk and film scores. All of this is delicately held together by a remarkable concept of "soul" and obviously, "love."
