A cool set from the contemporary funk underground in Russia – a surprisingly strong place for grooves in recent years – and the home of this mighty cool combo! The Vicious Seeds have a vibe that's very different than you might expect from their name – more laidback overall, with a mix of bass, drums, percussion, and two different guitarists – players who have this way of criss-crossing in space with all these great chromatic elements that are only enhanced even more by the echoey production in the mix! At times, the record has a clean crispness that almost feels like mid 80s UK indie production, turned towards instrumental funk – almost as if Dif Juz had more of a groove – and there's guest work on the album on flute, vibes, trumpet, and keyboards – used in all the right ways to make for some special musical moments.
