Via Juno: This mini-album marks a shift in emphasis for Lustwerk Music, with boss Galcher Lustwerk choosing to showcase the work of another producer for the first time. He’s apparently been nurturing Florida-based Quavius for some time, encouraging the young producer to “experiment more” while following his instincts. It seems to have worked because the majority of music on this debut release is top notch. It covers a lot of ground, with the A-side alone moving between R&B-inspired hip-house (“Love The Way”), hip-hop (“Magic Man”), woozy electronica (“R ‘n’ V”) and spacey deep house (“Composure”). There’s naturally plenty more to enjoy on the flipside, too, from the old school deep hip-hop bump of “M 320”, to the crunk-tinged, cut-up goodness of closer “Can I Be”. Tune in now.
