Been enjoying this record from 2004 as the weather’s been getting warmer. Chill, jazz-centric trip hop with a spritz of Latin/South American influence at the turn and into the homestretch. An oldie but a goodie.

A Turkish psych-beat banger from '22 with string samples giving "Toxic" by Britney Spears-style gravitas. I don't hear a lot of other stuff sounding like this. Definitely goes hard.
