This self titled album from Spinach Prince is pure instrumental cool…..
Half stepping from Chicago Illinois, these boys peddle that live instruments as samples groove in a seriously heavy way. The band is made up of Elliot Ross- guitar/keys/bass, Thomas Faulds- drums, Charles Gorczynski-woodwinds/keys and Chris Merrill- bass.
Inspired by the sounds of Madlib, J Dilla and Yesterdays Quintet their sound is raw and heavy yet very organic thanks to the use of live instruments over a purely digital set up (my speakers have set up a mushroom farm since picking this up!)
The tracks bring to my mind dusty widescreen pictures of back in the day secret agents, hustling against double crossing super villains with the lens flare cranked up to ten. This is a big city sound.
You can pick up a copy of this must have gem from the bands site here…
