Alphapup have been a reliable source of all things odd, beat-driven and West Coastal
for some time now (if youÆve never heard Ricci Rucker youÆd better remedy that
pronto) and this debut from Jonwayne is another golden egg in their rich and diverse
canon. æThe Death of AndrewÆ in typical Alphapup style is a grimy slice of
other-world rap instrumentals, and coughs and splutters its way through its meager
twenty-minute duration as if itÆs emerging from the lungs of a dying puppeteer. With
beats as cracked and decomposed as Clouddead at their most blunted, Jonwayne adds
flourishes of theatrics not unlike Jacaszek giving an alluring widescreen flicker to
sounds that, more often than not, are coming from a totally different angle. The very
definition of æleft fieldÆ, this record is the kind of release that gives me great
hope in the future of music. Seems like people really can shake things up every once
in a while, after all.
