SIDE A:

SIDE B:
    1:  The Universe Collapses

With the release of his new 10” EP, Take continues to push the boundaries of instrumental Hip Hop music. As if his previous release “Forward Motion From Behind Tall Weeds” (Poo-Bah Records 006) wasn’t off-center enough, here on “Took One”, we are treated to a pair of 9 minute songs that further blur the constraining lines of genre. “Rehearsing my Thoughts”, and “The Universe Collapses“ are continuously evolving compositional collages leading the listener down a dust covered road of bit-crushed melodies and molested jazz samples.

REVIEWS:
“Hip Hop music for mediation. Come get served.”
 - Garth Trinidad, Chocolate City KCRW

“Take makes music that makes love. His intricate melodies are hugged by warm bass shaking tingling textures from kissing trees.” -Frosty, Dublab

“Take is foraging a brand of deeply listenable instrumental hip-hop. Hypnotic, psychedelic, laidback- in other words, thoroughly West Coast.”
 - Tomas Palermo, XLR8R

“This music is diamonds in the raw, coal yet compressed, and quite the same, people will be unearthing it for years to come.”
- Daedelus, Ninja Tune, Mush
