Coming out with one of the most anticipated and long-awaited albums so far on Brainfeeder is Samiyam aka Sam Baker. "Sam Baker's Debut Album" is 40 minutes of pure listening pleasure, a series of woozy, off-centre hip hop instrumentals drawing heavily on Baker's love of electronic funk but never in hock to it. Intensely detailed and carrying considerable emotional weight, this is not "Rap Beats Volume 2" but an album of fully-realized pieces of music which stand on their own without the need for an MC's intervention.
