  Like A Box Of Chocolate is exactly what it insinuates, you never know what you're gonna get. Side one is a 12 minute track made from samples played by live musicians (Faze Liquide), chopped, arranged, and spliced with scratch percussion and other dug up samples to create a delux heroin induced dreamy feeling. The idea isn't that simple though. This is not your traditional live samples arranged nicely for your consumption vibe that you'd expect 99% of production jazz to entail, nah... The actual soloing phrases from each instrument was spliced to new compositions, very tedious and abstract, but so smooth, you wouldn't even know the entire thing was programmed line for line. Seamless; the magic within the artistry. Side 2 features two tracks made entirely by scratching. You know no one in the world is coming this hard and with this much range, aurally pleasing while at the same time satisfying your silent avant garde requirements. The last track on side 2 is the hip hop version of the title track from side one, featuring Jihad (from 3rd Sight) on the raps. Hardcore ish for the hip hop crowd. If you like your beats slow, grimey, your cuts braggadocious, funky, and original, and raps, mental, disturbing and untouchable, you'll like this. Beautifully designed jacket designed by Italian born Valentina Carmenesi, which depicts something you wouldn't expect to correlate to the music within. Excellent sound quality pressed on virgin vinyl. Recommended!
