"A good fun record, the new album from Lipphead -- aka the collaborative NYC duo consisting of the producer Tony Simon (Blockhead) and Eliot Lipp -- is the group's third official full-length, having released the first two records via Detroit's Young Heavy Soul label. Lipphead's music occupies the sweet spot between Blockhead's groovy, sample-based hip- hop and Eliot Lipp's upbeat electronic funk. The internationally renowned NYC producer Tony Simon -- aka Blockhead -- has released 15 albums over the past 15 years, including four acclaimed records for Ninja Tune and numerous production jobs including notable works with Aesop Rock. He is regarded as one of the modern masters of instrumental hip-hop and has more recently been releasing music on other platforms like Future Archive Recordings and Backwoodz Studios. Eliot Lipp is an electronic musician based in Brooklyn, New York. His work was picked up by Scott Herren of Prefuse 73 (Warp Records) after Herren heard him working the club circuit."
