Dabrye takes a much more definitive step into the hip-hop world with _Two/Three_, his second album for Ghostly Interational. The MCs take center stage here, and Dabrye's intricate production takes a more subdued role. For instance, the thrumming darkness on "Encoded Flow" or the pinball machine of "That's What's Up" seem to get subsumed beneath the lyrics. The back and forth of "Viewer Discretion" and "Get It Together" melds the two much better, balancing the sounds with the dueling lyricists so that the three complement each other; "Reconsider" also works well. Dabrye shines most on his instrumentals, like on the bouncy "Tell Dem" or the mysterious, guitar-stabbed "Jorgy." "Piano" seems to have no piano in its whatsoever -- not that it's a problem with such a funky track. A little bit of something for everyone here...

This release Kicks ass!!! Haven't heard of Dabrye or Tadd Mullinix before, but i accidently stumbled on his tracks on Last FM and got sucked into his groove almost instantly! I bought this CD. And didn't regret it for a single day! from the Dark Abstact Hip-hop of "Encoded Flow" to the bouncing-uptempo-basslines of "Tell Dem", there's always that, almost-out-of-tune, groove that makes my head nod!!
