EP on Third Ear... is lush, very Riot-era sly stone, TV On The Radio, Latyrx. Jason Hogans (Brownstudy) is some idm godhead, this is his hip-hop side-project, and this EP might be the best thing I've heard all year. Minimal, 4-Hero esque tracks, heavy on distorted Hammond and Rhodes, handclaps and fingerclicks as rhythm tracks, lyrics very Franti-goes-Anticon, in the best possible way - lucid, rambling, poetic personal/political murmurings.
Buy it, goddammit...
