Asphodel

By Tom Terrell

Asphodelic, the new compilation from Left-Coast label Asphodel, walks on the electro-jazz rhythm oblique far side of the spectrum. Don't be put off by Asphodelic's fuzzy/woozy drum 'n' bass ambients-you'll miss stunners like the exquisitely "fake" MIDI jazzy samba of Tipsy's "Bunny Kick (Your Mother's Mix)."
