Another exceptional collection of "blunted" beats, originally released in 2009 (as an i-Tunes-only instrumental album), by a producer whose style is associated with Doom, Dilla, Madlib, Melting Pot Music, Ras-G, and Computer Jay. This is the aural bridge from nascent Oxnard hip-hop 1992 to L.A. beat scene 2012. Kankick has done albums for Ramp Recordings, Up Above (Acid Massive Musical), Illmindmuzik, Mean Street, and others, but seems to be drawn to self-released, no promotion CD-R editions that have inevitably become sought-after collector's items. This CD is an anomaly, made possible by the motivated folks at Octave in Japan. Will appeal to fans of Madlib and Oh No, as Kankick is considered by some to be the fourth member of The Lootpack (Stones Throw) alongside Madlib, Ohno, and DJ Romes. He contributed heavily to their debut, as well as The Alkoholiks' 21 & Over. Includes two bonus tracks.
