I picked up 3 of these!!!.......2006-09-30

When I first got this record it came w/the instrumentals of the entire EP as well. So, I picked it up again (on vinyl)... I have mad love for the production on this that has given me so much joy beat-juggling. Then, I grabbed the CD and just zoned out over the ill lyrics and underground beats. All in All you need to get on this, I'm sure that if you're a fan of good hip hop music, this won't dissapoint.

Product Description

Following on from much success incurred - via - the likes of his Time Waits For No Man LP, the Heatseeking 12 and, only recently sampled - the Sophisticated Mic Pros b/w Blood Brothaz - that precursed two of the lyrical and production delights on this very release, Rasco now looks set to step into well over sixth gear with the imminent unloading of The Birth EP. Featuring eight banging new cuts to whet all appetites, the man has enlisted only the creme de la creme of the underground ta make this yet another hip hop classic, period, as cameos from the likes of Planet Asia, Safir, Richness and the Molemens His-Panik on production just go to show. As a special little bonus treat for the vinyl junkies out there, all instrumental versions of the EPs tracks will be included - spread over two 12s, thus making this package an absolute must. If anyone was to now be signifying a change in hip hops flavour and heading it towards the next chapter in its ever-unfolding evolution, then Rasco looks certain to be one of the most pivotal key players in this particular revolution inb sound. Watch this man at all costs...

Rasco's Birth EP.......2000-01-13

Rasco, along with Planet Asia, are two MCs with undoubtably raw talent. They are fresh new talents that, along with Peanut Butter's production, enter a new realm of underground hip-hop. By far, the tightest and truest, especially having New York flava coming from Cali.

Album Description

The Going-Away Party is the debut EP from Dayton Oh-based art rock collective Complete Portion Control, related by birth to Dayton lo-fi legends Guided By Voices. Imagine Mark E. Smith from The Fall if he'd gone to a Swiss prep school. Imagine jagged, cyclic rhythms with inscrutable, repetitive vocals ranging from sweet crooning to insane shouting. Imagine a drug experiment gone badly wrong.

A red wine ritalin US Open cocktail.......2005-02-05

With the cool ubertones of post-Allan Parsons' Project "I Robot" releases, the debut release by CPC does its best to integrate the many influences of its lead singers' modest Midwestern upbringing. Don't let the liner notes fool you, these guys are from a dull working class Dayton, Ohio exurb best known as the home of Kenny Rogers (the broasted chicken restaurant, not the singer). The lead singers' kaleidoscopic experience as a long distance freight driver, southwestern hippie commune supplicant, strip club poet, ADD drug prophet, and canine philanthropist certainly adds to the mix. While lacking the brilliance and staying power of a meat sandwich, the record leaves one with the distinct and altogether familiar feeling of having undergone full body hair removal by droll aspiring literary agents. Best tracks here are "Ukraniana" and "Destroyer". Recommended.

Brilliant! A must listen for any serious music lover........2005-02-04

One of my new favorites. A bit reminiscient of early Pavement, with a hint of The Fall and a touch of GBV. Complete Portion Control makes Conor Oberst and the other new kids seem like they're trying just a bit too hard. Intriguing lyrics set against a background of really cool music. CPC creates new possibilities with their sonic landscapes - not like Moby, though. You'll get it after a few listens....well worth the adventure.

Fantastic!.......2005-02-04

One of the best debut recordings I've heard in ages. These guys are serious experimentalists, emphasis on mental. Understand that it's some ex-members of Guided By Voices (do I detect the deft telecaster stylings of Tobin Sprout?) but this definitely stands on its own as a left-field classic.
