Ed Solo & Skool Of Thought- Random Acts Of Kindness (2007)

Music is serious business for me. It defines who I am, it has shaped my life in unimaginable ways and I cannot live without it. Juxtaposed against this is the need for music to be fun for me sometimes, playful and bouncy. I see an element of disdain for a lot of this on MB as if music HAS to be serious, to have a point or be musically complex to be enjoyed at all.

Life can't be serious all the time and I get off on listening to big ass funky breakbeats, or skanking electro dub. That's why this album is the shit. It makes me want to jump up and down like a 15 year old kid at the school disco except my music is cooler than the drivel at the disco. It makes me want to be in a open top car with this blaring out looking like the quintessential poser prick.

Just listen to the damn thing and crank it up FFS. It's commercial but it never made it big so you can listen and still be considered cool if you are that desperate to cling onto that sort of thing.
