was 18 listening to this worried about life and now I am 23 still listening to this great album, every time I listen to it brings back good times!

[@gingkaize]

From the artwork to the music, this album is just so special. I love Saint Pepsi and I love Empire Building

[@Cr4z3d]

Field day for some reason makes me think about NiGHTS Into Dreams. I also really like what was done with the compressor towards the end of it that made it sound like an actual heartbeat, really cool effect.

[@Cr4z3d]

silhouettes might actually be my personal favorite, though all of em are pretty good, all of SP's stuff was.

[@940steel]

Field day is so good

[@spacedandy6418]

[@KittSpiken]

@@Tirgo69 not knowing where to begin is a great way to get 50 pages. A messy incoherent 50 pages but quantity of quality

[@dmedic213]

What a piece of art. Catchy and great vocals from the past with some nostalgic beats. And the drums oh my goodness! You dance to it, chill, think about a girl or do whatever you please. Sometimes it sounds like rock, RnB, 80s Pop, Slow House, Soul. It's smooth as silk. Truly a piece of art. ✌

[@dmaster5556]

Fucking hell, I get a sharp chill down my spine when I listen to the beginning of Resort. Got me feeling some kind of way.

[@Spacemace]

This is SO similar to late 90s - early 2000s French House! (More so some tracks than others, like SHAOLIN compared to aurora calling.) If I didn't know any better, I'd believe SHAOLIN is a Thomas Bangalter track.

[@daphunkyzzindahouse]

+Spacemace I don't but it's my opinion ^^

[@tdlk1631]

The sample for Empire is “When I fall in love” by Peaches and Herb

[@Dk-oo2gw]

@6:55 I fall in love for the first time, looking into her blue eyes sitting above a star-speckled & red freckled face.

[@behindthefern2846]

For anyone curious, the sample for SHAOLIN is New York Express - Hot on the Clue. Now all I gotta do is find out what TRUSTFALL's sample is and I can rest easy. Fuck's sake, it shouldn't be this painstaking to figure out samples. And yes, I've already checked Whosampled.

That edit of Cay Hume's "Do You Really Need Me?" is sooooooo goood (although the clicks are not as crisp as the original)

[@meleepinata]

this shit is brilliant. seriously. this is the dark side of people that make furniture out of milk crates and pallets. give them a musical engineering thought process, and this is what you'd get. I do the same shit to magazines and newsprint on the reg. destroy and rebuild the junk to where it makes a sometimes ambiguous statement. I toast to this bastard creativity.

[@johndavis6719]

Everybody always say that vaporware artist uses samples and other people's music almost every rap artist from back in the day and even newcomers and R@B artist uses samples and uses other people music and honestly I prefer vaporware more than the crap on the Radio and MTV any day.
