Any Req fans here? I picked up his album "One" on Skint a while back..gorgeous spraypaint cover art..and some interesting ambient hip hop..like SAWII with lo tek beats..but the production is very muffled..and dull..a shame since the actual content, beats and ideas are quite good.. his next album Sketchbook came out on Warp last year...anyone heard it?..is it any good? and how does it compare with One.. |
||||||||

Yeah, I picked up his debut a few months ago but haven't given it a proper listen yet. He only used minimal equipment so I guess that's why the production is not so hot. But I did notice he'd been signed to Warp. |

yeah I was aware of his lofi equipment..and was one of the reasons i got interested but final product is usually taken into a studio..so hmm.. but production aside..it's very good music.. |

Maybe Skint were throwing all their cash at promoting Fatboy Slim. |

The Face??? Bah, I never had you down as a clued-in yuppie hehe. Well, Skint had its most successful time in the days of big beat about 5 or 6 years ago. But they've since signed Dave Clarke and X-Press 2 so I think they've raised their profile again and garnered some more respectability. |
