FLOOD

This collaborative LP places producer Danger Mouse’s lush, tense arrangements and cushiony, snapping beats in the service of The Roots’ lyricist and microphone expert.

The Beasties clean up nice on this reissue of the album that introduced their dirtball brand of insistently stewing lo-fi mixed-bag skronk.

This remixed odds and ends collection is longer, denser, more disorderly, and less refined than the composer’s solo effort from last year.
