MC Eriksolo’s cleverly incisive wordplay and cerebral flow are as finely honed as ever and act as the perfect foil for Quarterbar’s dark, blunted beats and atmospheric programming. Eriksolo’s delivery is as much indie rock as it is underground hip-hop, with its focus on metaphysical issues and the abstraction of interpersonal relationships. Quarterbar’s programming may take a cue from artists as diverse like, but the deeply personal nature of these meticulously constructed tracks allows them to seem far from derivative. These six brief pieces have certainly whetted this reviewer’s appetite for a (hopefully inevitable) full-length.HOLLER!!!
