2006
JamesDilla's final LP condenses entire emotional and rhythmic ideas into miniature instrumental pieces that often last barely over a minute. He manipulates soul, funk, jazz, and pop samples with such fluidity that the beats feel both improvised and impossibly precise. The fragmented structure gives the record a dreamlike emotional flow. Knowing it was completed near the end of his life only deepens its emotional resonance without defining it entirely.
