Loopmaffia - Letters From
Just over a year after his last golden-funk full length for us, Poland's purveyor of old school beats -- the intriguingly named LoopMaffia -- is back. Inspired by the likes of DJ Premier and Pete Rock, LoopMaffia brings his newest body of work, Letters From, into focus. He gets a boost from friends Toni Pereze and DJ Flovcut plus blood brother My Neighbour Is on the first and final cuts. Showcasing more of a classic-meets-contemporary blend on previous efforts, this album is about bending ideas in a way that points towards the future. Letters From is at its most exciting when the synths are put into overdrive, as well as on its less form-fitting explorations. Beats for days
