Rise Of the Elephant Kingdom Review

For all those who faithfully follow the musical voyage to the filter, their eighteenth announcement is another great album, this time signed by the producer that you are well known for his The Sleeper EP.

Abstract Butta Fingas returns to the scene with its first edition Mizar, accompanied by a long list of guests. Ekundayo, Tamara Blue, Tekesh, A-1, BC, Caveman, MC Vigo, El Sufi and multitalentiranata Shania D, helping once again to erase the genre boundaries and to confirm their status of highly specific producer.

In The Rise Of The Elephant Kingdom, he drives through the history of black music, jazz, funk, soul and hip-hop has put in a modern, electronic, and often emphasized "machine" context. All done with tremendous respect for history, but also with self-confidence characteristic of the most experienced musical veterans.

Moods of the album are changing constantly, and the audience to testify ochiglednite hits Cause'n'Effect, TSA, Tijuana Connection, a few musical passages pointimni (More, Booooom and The Love), but highly experimental studio masterpieces such as The Slump, The Underball Experience and Uberwonder Highway.

With all this, Abstract Butta Fingas not only justifies the expectations imposed by the previous edition, but also makes the necessary step forward, with the announcement that define his future career. He cement its status as one of the most exciting new producers of today. The album will appear May 17 on all relevant digital music services worldwide.
