my take on go plastic is that it is "music is rotted.." with the fusiony
jazzy samples swapped out with breaks samples. it's fluid, freeform,
seemingly random (everything fusion jazz is), only applied to the breaks
spectrum. quite an obvious progression from "music is rotted.." if you
ask me, go plastic is just as "jazzy" as music is rotted. just because
it doesn't have that "jazz sound" does not mean it is not jazzy.
