Add Date: December 15
Artist: More Than Lights
Album: The Electric Prescription for All Your Funky Illz
Label: Self-released
Genre: Jam-band/Hip-Hop mezcla
Comments: A weird blend of hip-hop, blues, pop, big band tunes and a constant supply of beats make the debut album The Electric Prescription for All Your Funky Illz, by More Than Lights, an interesting--if not slightly confusing--listening experience. The mix of female pop vocals and toned-down rap, combined with a heavy bass, constant beats and the ample use of big band instruments, somehow combines to give the cd a very jam-band-esque vibe (the longest track, however, is still only 7 minutes). Ironically, it's not very electric (as the title would suggest), but the wealth of other musical influences more than covers all necessary bases. Tracks 2 and 4 (which is DNP) exemplify the interesting hip-hop/jam dichotomy, and 6 and 8 mix the poppy female vocals with the big band feel.
