Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

The second album from this San Franciscan-based drums and bass and decks 3-piece follows the deranged hip-hop schematic set out by their debut, Monostereois. Working with a limited palette allows for endlessly inventive permutations of cross-fading, strings and skins. To that end, "Lesson 7" boldly follows in the footsteps of hip-hop classics from Double Dee & Steinski (Lessons 1-3), DJ Shadow ("Lesson 4"), and Jurassic 5's Cut Chemist ("Lesson 6"). Wah-wah double bass, kettle drums and heavy metal scratch theatrics prefigure in this new school of higher learning. "2AM" is a tour de force of tumbling, phased drum and bass rhythms and hearing-impaired electronic screeching kept in check by the solid pluck of the double bass. "Luck Hullabagunshot" takes its title from a literal translation of the sound of the spliced samples that open the track, which continues like the prelude to a Dario Argento splatterfest with tribal drums and the sustained screams of a plucked guitar. Genetically-spliced, diced, mixed and EQed, Elefish Jellyphant is peculiar animal. --Chris Campion

4.0 out of 5 stars DJ Quest at his best, with drums amd bass., 30 Aug 2000
This album combines, in a near perfect form, some great turntablism, wonderful jazz inflected drumming and beautifully smooth bass playing. The blend of textures they have created is the first obvious improvement on their previous album Monostereosis. Which whilst contained the excellent instrumentalism still present on this album did tend to lack any textural variety making the album lack any real cohesion as a whole. Elefish Jellyphant however is a far more thought out album in terms of its sonic texture. The blend of the samples, bass, scratching and drum kit providing the listener with a wonderful album of near perfect proportions.
