Heshootshescores! Was just talking last night with someone about how awesome the drums sound on that.

Others that come to mind...
STEZO LP (forgot name of it, not the greatest album, but recording was dope).
Another good call. I never had the album, but the singles were full of smack and body and everything nice.

Good call with Breaking Atoms too.

Pete & CL's second, though? I always found it wishy-washy next to the first (and remember that being a common knock against it). I think the first could be accused of not being punchy enough, but at the same time, the depth of the layering on that one, and how the mix accomodates it really thrills me. But the second just sounded dull to me.

Peece,
T. Tauri
