Bro These New Earl Sweatshirt Beats...

this shit is amazing for any fans of abstract hip-hop and weird lo-fi samples.
it's really blowing me away -- i'm not much of an Earl fan, slept on his last project entirely cause i didn't really like the single. listened to Doris like once or twice but it was extremely underwhelming imo. of course i've heard Earl but even that tape doesn't age as well as you might have thought back in 2010.
anyway, i just want to speak from the perspective of someone who isn't an Earl stan but loves weird, experimental, dense shit (when done right)...cause this album is exactly that.
the beats consist of things like half-bar or 16 bar loops, 5/4 patterns, widely varying tempos and drum patterns, and some expertly executed beat-stitching in the style of The Madlib that we've all come to know and love.
it's something old mixed in with something new, and it's super refreshing to hear Earl fall down the rabbit hole like this.
highly recommended. there's several unknown producers on this too, which i thought was interesting.
