on the last level i have skelethlon (2012). Theres something that doesnt move me in most of Skelethlon's tracks. I think that maybe Aes wasnt ready to handle doin' all of the production for a full length. He definitely*was ready 4 years later......Still i think that his best tracks are produced by Blockhead.
agree with all of this. Could never get into None Shall Pass though, the production is just too cheesy. Blockhead's classical driven production on Float makes it the standout of Aesop's career. What are your thoughts on Bestiary?
