Buy at: iTunes  GEMM

Monkey-Straddle Comments (1) ... Damn solid! Whatever "Monkey-Straddle" means, consider that monkey straddled! Nnnj (generally pronounced "inch") throws down and comfortably walks the line between artistic freedom and musical convention with a combination of cut-up breaks, mellow moods, deep, dubby grooves, and cinematic moodiness highlighted by near-Eastern intrumentation and very sparse female vocal work.
Track Listing:
  1. Goop Scoop
  2. Close The Loop
  3. Lush Lope
  4. What's The Weather Like Today?
  5. Fiji Geesus
  6. Monkey Straddle
  7. What's The Weather Like Tomorrow?
  8. Überamkin
  9. :-)
  10. 1205 180a
  11. Demeter's Pupil
  12. The Rinse

Stylistically, "Monkey-Straddle" is a hybrid of broken beat, IDM, near-Eastern fusion and downtempo that come together to form the kind of album you can put on, kick back, relax with friends and just move with it, whether it's a standing-room only head-nod affair, or just a few of your closest for cool drinks and comfy chairs.

As always, The Agriculture keeps it fresh, edgy and blissfully spicy. Nnnj's "Monkey Straddle" is audio chutney... whatever your dish, it's gonna make it better!

deep but smooth grooves
very dubby but without an overbearing reggae influence. fucking chill as hell. standouts are Goop Scoop and What's The Weather Like Today?
