jack's soul & rock corner

Rae & Christian
Northern Sulphuric Soul (1998)
192

You may not have heard much of them, but their work has consistently shown up on more discerning playlists. Beats from Hip Hop blend seamlessly with guests artists (from Jungle Brothers to Jeru) to create rich soundscapes (a definite change from your typical Hip Hop stuff - this is melodic and multilayered) but it's the tracks with singer Veba which are the standouts on this album...Trk 6 All I Ask is sublime. Texas (Scottish pop-rock band) has a good track on here too - The Hush. This CD is ideal for lounging at home, or the beach...wherever you are, this is gonna take you on an aural holiday.
