A one-time-only transatlantic collaboration between ULTRAMAGNETIC MC's legend KOOL KEITH, West London's most essential keyboardist KAIDI TATHAM, and production team WE ARE THE HORSEMEN! UK future jazz keeps the rhythm locked with real finesse.

A dream collaboration from KOOL KEITH, the wild man who has been active since the late '80s as the core of the Bronx's ULTRAMAGNETIC MC'S, developed conceptual characters and styles through the '90s (ULTRA, DR. OCTAGON, DR. DOOM, etc.), and continues to pursue artistic originality to this day! His partners here are WE ARE THE HORSEMEN, featuring HARVINDER SINGH NAGI, head of the quality reissue label 〈OUTERNATIONAL SOUNDS〉. And joining them is none other than KAIDI TATHAM, a central figure of the crossover scene. Keith meets the smooth UK broken beat backing band with superb rhyme skills. The KAIDI TATHAM-featuring version is a must, of course, but be sure to give the original a listen too (sample1), with its heavily boosted low end layered with percussive drums. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
