Album Notes & Community Reviews

British producer Andy Carthy masterfully constructs an eccentric, sample-heavy journey through downtempo and nu jazz on his sophomore effort. The album heavily utilizes obscure vinyl cuts and whimsical soundbites to create a humorous and highly danceable atmosphere, propelled largely by the cult hit 'Get a Move On!'.
