#1113 Sweet Valley - Eternal Champ
Intricate, hooky sample-driven music that spans styles and means of appealing. Instrumental hip hop is the backbone, but the result is unusually active, melodic, and exciting; Eternal Champ is unafraid to whip out of a groove just to keep you on your toes, drawing on electronics, soul, hip hop, movies, video games and more. The only downside is the so-2012 wobbles and slurs, detuning notes in ways that annoy as often as they intrigue. But maybe that's just a necessary evil for making music this listenable so strange. Good stuff for weirdening up a long night or a long drive, you'll never be quite complacent listening to this, for better or worse 3.5/5
