“run this up in your car, on a walk, while you smoke, while you’re spiraling at 3 AM” Producer, bassist, DJ, and chronic radio nerd, Umamifunk released Super Express, a jazzy, spaced out instrumental hip hop album. It’s versatile enough to play as background music for any occasion, until an exquisite sample perks you up and requires deeper listening. The song “Hold Me to It” is one of those moments, shimmering synths, skittering percussion, and – is that a pan flute? take you on a journey deep in the woods. boxboys provides a deeply enjoyable footwork rework of the very same song to finish off the record.
