I loved Estrocaro too from the moment I first heard it, and I've been
tremendously impressed with the mp3s I found of "Vocal Studies and Uprock
Narratives", BUT... these days I'm finding that this Prefuse 73 stuff just
doesn't go very far.
While the tracks that initially impressed me still sound great, some of
the others seem like filler, and the lushness has begun to get sort of
cloying. To my surprise, a lot of them have also started to sound more and
more similar to each other. As someone (?) said a few weeks ago, it would
be a great soundtrack to an hour-long Gap commercial; it's just that I don't
want to watch a Gap commercial for more than a minute or so.
What are some other opinions on the album?
---
All right, so Estrocaro is getting a bit short for me. I've gotten pretty
addicted to the lush tones and chopped-up flows, especially the cut-n-paste
MC bits that pop in and out, but I'm a little tired of having to flip the
record over every six minutes. Short of waiting for the next Prefuse/ other
Herren project, does anyone have any recomendations on anyone making
anything remotely similar with/in hip-hop?
