Fans of footwork or crazy electronic music would likely enjoy. The first time I listened to it about a week ago was while I was cutting my lawn and I stopped mid mow several times in astonishment. This thing stretches time in ways that I haven’t experienced in a while. 15 minutes into the mix I felt like I had been listening for at least 30-45 minutes. WHOOOOOOAAAAAAA!
Here's the mix I think you're talking about: https://ra.co/podcast/785
Compelling reason to listen:
Your new LP is primarily inspired by rap and footwork, and you mentioned Illmatic as an early hip-hop touchstone for you. What are some of your other, more recent, rap favourites?

I go for the rappers, not so much for the music. It's mainly if I connect with the voice and flow of an MC, if they have good timing and all that.[/quote]
