Review by kicks79 Apr 03, 2010 (edited over 2 years ago)
Most people will know Andres better for his hip hop alias DJ DEZ. Providing the cuts for many legendary Detroit hip hop acts such as Slum Village, Phat Kat and Black Milk amongst others.
However the Detroit sound is as diverse as it is deep ranging from everything from Hip hop, house, techno, electro to disco, funk, latin and of course Soul.
This is where Andres II comes in. Blended together by a sampler and a drum machine but left raw around the edges, Its a sonic melting pot of all the styles mentioned above and moves effortlessly between them. Several well known samples are used but Andres flips them in such a way that a sense of familiarity is created likened to playing your favourite records and only enhances the listening experience.
Co-produced by by Moodymann and put out on his own label Mahogani Music it also features Amp Dog Knight aka Amp Fiddler playing keys on several tracks.
For people who have a love of deep soul music whatever style it may take Hip hop or house this is a perfect album for you.

This album just GOT to be an homage to J-Dilla and this album reminds me so much of Donuts. The similarities are there but is so well done nevertheless..
