Prefuse 73 - Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian

Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian is sixth studio album from the electronic musician Scott Herren under Prefuse 73 moniker. Prefuse 73's work (the moniker, by the way refers to jazz fusion before 1973) is underground hip hop laced with experimental techno leanings, where MCs are just one of the crazy textures among many, rather than a focal point. On this new album there's even more electro and the album is mostly instrumental. For those who like the late J Dilla, Prefuse 73's work is kind of like a more electronic and digital version of what Jay Dee did. The album contains 29 tracks and lasts for less than 50 minutes. Most tracks are short fragments. Therefore it is a record to be listened from start to finish. Prefuse 73 is certainly recommended for music fans sick of hip hop in its conventional stereotypes, but nonetheless open to the notion that even in the hip hop idiom it is possible to create something exciting and inventive.
