I just picked this up yesterday, but it's FANTASTIC!!! It's amazing really, you should all check it out... I believe the way it this album was done was the band recorded themselves playing, and then the main guy sampled that and put it together... it's very jazzy, but is much darker and more melencholic then the jazz I've heard... and it features the vocals of Roots Manuva on the track All Things to All Men which is amazing, and is totally shiver inducing... sends shivers down my spine everytime... It's similer to DJ Shadow's Endtroducing in sound, but it sounds much more "live" then Endtrocuing, and it's much more jazz then endtroducing... you should all check it out, it's really amazing!!

This is the best album I've heard in a long, long time. I think its all live Funkmaster. On the sleeve it notes which bandmember plays which instrument on which track. It really does have a live feel to it, which is refreshing. Though I can appreciate the merits of sampling, there's nothing like the sound of a live band who can play their instruments well.
I can't wait for the next one. They should have a lot more in them. Motion was great but this album is a step ahead.

Excellent album. I read somewhere that what they did was improvise around a sample they liked or something. I don't like Motion near as much.
