Album Notes & Community Reviews

Hopeton Brown, operating under his famous 'Scientist' moniker, continues his incredible run of early 80s dub deconstructions. Backed by the thunderous rhythms of the Roots Radics, the album strips away vocal tracks to build a warm, incredibly repetitive, and deeply hypnotic sonic environment driven by heavy delay and bass[cite: 1].
