Zavala - Vessel Instrumentals (2011)
Zavala's ridiculous beats were by far the best part of the Dark Time Sunshine project. de-grimed (they're pristine) and without emcees flowing over the top, you can see why these complex, swirling, and yet decidedly organic soundscapes can stand on their own. not the emcees fault, it's just a testament to Z's beatmaking that his skills overshadowed the rest of the collaborators - after hearing them this way, i haven't listened to the proper release again. fans of Nobody's early beat tapes and FlyLo's Los Angeles will probably really dig this shit.
beats me
awesome. everyone i have played this to has been impressed.
Again, very nice. E.R. is delicious. Thanks!
