-
On Soft Money undeniable talent finds its nemesis in homogeneity of style and absence of individuality.
-
Jel's music here doesn't focus your attention to a laser-point the way Them did, but neither is it big enough to saturate it-- it lurks comfortably in the middle distance.
-
Soft Money is full of the sort of guitar riffs that mutter their notes and beats that knock about to break themselves free from dumpsters.
-
UncutA sampling tour de force, but short on soul. [Apr 2006, p.112]
-
UrbJel's cagey, chunky breaks interlace into stereoscopic head-nodding noir. [Mar 2006, p.113]

LibbiLJul 12, 2007Bangin' cd! Plus Ms. John Soda is featured on more than 1 track. You can't touch that. The beats sink in deep.
