According to the digipack efflorescence means a. a gradual process of unfolding or developing, or b. the highest point; the culmination. Quite a bold title for an album! So, is Androcell able to live up to his title.

In a word, yes! While downbeat releases can have a hard time grabbing my attention for longer periods of time, Efflorescence somehow succeeds maintaining my interest. It quite simply flows right from track one and once on Tyler "Quasga" Smith's ride you wanna hear this album through to the end. With its' occasional dub inspiration I'm not quite sure what albums to compare it with, but think Ultimae possibly a little more upbeat. Highly recommended for downtempo lovers and quite possibly a contestant for downtempo album of the year.
