Never felt someone’s soul so much than when listening to J Dilla. Magnum Opus. A masterfully driven body of work. Has more bass than newer pressings which bodes well for the record. Highly recommend 11/10. A masterpiece U-LOVE

After a couple A/B listens from the OG & the recent represses, it is quite apparent the amount of bass, filth, and nastiness that sits in the OG. The modern day pressings provide a much cleaner & more separated sound, but will lack that GRIT. A clean OG will have your house thumping and piss ya neighbours off. It feels DILLA.

Both have their place imo, but I just wanted to share my thoughts / findings.

**to note: I say filth and nastiness as a positive lol

As somebody that has both vinyl LP cover varieties... To get the concept, I think you really need the CD...on repeat... This thing is the "Finnegan's Wake" of 21st century music!

Gawd damn this pressing is absolutely wonderful. Perfect pressing for a perfect album. Couldn't reccomend this enough

classic 10/10 nothing short of legendary status. objectively the best album in existence, not up for debate either.

I have a bad pressing of this, the vinyl rubs up against the tonearm holder/cartridge holder and the outside grooves are way too wide. it's a shame.

I love all instrumentals in this album! I bought the LP a few years ago and I am glad I did!

A truly beautiful piece of music from a supremely gifted producer. So many wonderful moments yet hangs together wonderfully.

Probably favourite album of all time - finally got it on vinyl. Delicious.

This record Is dilla's soul. It's like he says before his death "ok from past to now I do Great things, but not what i always expect in creating music. I believed i have years to do it, but the disease Is not okay with That, so let's go"
