Three years in the making, it digs deeper by confronting his own roots and music. HIP HOP, DISCO, ROCK, JAZZ and more from the Deep South across various eras, balanced so it's neither too nostalgic nor too modern, with a mellow maturity that quietly surpasses the previous album. Loaded with highlights: A4 "City Lights" (sample_1), with its wistful electric sitar, dry drums (we checked the video — not samples, actually played. Lovely), twilight sound effects and a perfectly fitting title; A6 "2021Disco" (sample_2), a cosmic disco cut featuring Stimulator Jones, another current Stones Throw favorite; B4 "Kawai Voyage," a flowing downtempo piece using a Kawai electric piano; and B3 "Coffy feat. Nigel Hall," a Roy Ayers cover. Sample from the tracklist too. Recommended (Original Japanese text by AYAM)
