Rough Cuts

Rough Cuts

Korean edition features three bonus tracks, a Night in Torino', 'Rude Boys' and 'Swing Breaks'. 'Rough Cuts' - Parov Stelars first full album and most precious work so far is an absolute must for friends of smoked beats, jazz and house! After two years of hard labor and a lot of finishing touches in late-night-turning-early-morning sessions, the head of Etage Noir Recordings presents an album which deliciously floats between Old school Jazz and modern Hip Hop Break. Different from Parovs preceding Maxis on Vinyl this long player on CD seems to be most appropriate for the dimmed light easy listening area rather than the club. Deep samples and compositions groove regardless of the actual fashion and trends and lift this album into a timeless piece of art, not worrying about any durability date. In 13 songs 'Rough cuts' tells US a story drawing new facings again and again, properly taking the listener on a pleasant journey. A journey that seems to start in the Jazz beginnings of the 30's and ends a long time after the computer revolution...
