MH-205 Fat Jon The Ample Soul Physician - Wave Motion  Wave Motion, the first full-length instrumental release from Fat Jon The Ample Soul Physician of The Five Deez, explores the deeper side of instrumental hip-hop. Using mature production and seductive jazz samples, Jon has created a truly notable record. Taking equal inspiration from 60's Kind Of Blue jazz and 70's Innervisions soul, Jon has crafted a release that chooses understated melodies and chord changes over cheap thrill loops and scratches. It is the work of someone who has spent years in the studio; it is the work of someone who has created thousands of tracks. Wave Motion is Fat Jon's finest work to date and a solid addition to the Mush catalog. |

| The description on the back reads "American made instrumental hip-hop." Couldn't have said it better myself. Fat Jon the Ample Soul Physician deals in beats smooth and funky, always laying down a most gracious table assortment. I've always felt that the more creative the beatwork, the more innovative the rhymes are likely to be. And if more Djs had the creativity and skill of Fat Jon, well, the radio might sound a whole better. Maybe the masses don't want complexity. Their loss. Complex music can be accessible, and this disc is proof. There are plenty of rhythmic byways for my mind to wander, but the basic grooves are simple and solid. Open access for all comers. This is soul music in the deepest sense in that this music actually has a soul and isn't afraid to show it. These beats have a depth and clarity that few achieve. - Aiding & Abetting |
