Sensational Meets Kouhei* – Sensational Meets Kouhei

on terms of uprisal Death Grips, Clipping and the others doing the electronic music meets abstract rhyming, this was possibly one of the first its kind, barring the occasional Techno Animal release. Sensational's back-catalog and releases can be a bit hit and miss depending on whose he's working with (the follow-up he did Matsunaga is gathering dust on my shelf as we speak) but this album is great though. This album was created over a few days in Japan between the two and brings a odd use of beats, with strange electronic noises ("The Purple People For Future Earth" sounds like tinnitus set to a drum beat) which partnered with Sensational's occasionally offbeat, nonsense and strange outlandish raps presents to the listener a bizarre meeting between faded stoned gangsta raps meets Aphex Twin esque effects. I cannot recommended it enough. also, IDM Virtuoso Autechre drops in to remix "666 Of My Fat" which is also good. Play at strange volumes..
