[Album] The Other Guys - "The Other Album"

The Other Guys' is a relatively new duo from the Washington DC area, made-up of Mighty Joe and Isaiah Insanate Mensah. Despite having released the noise making "Joe & Insanate's Excellent LP", the Guys have kept slipping under my radar until my now. Now up to speed with a listen to their new joint, "The Other Album", I'm convinced by their funky mix of live jazz and sample bending boom bap. To spice things up the self-producing group has invited jazz instrumentalists Tony Washington (trumpet), Peter Lewis (trombone), James Morris (Guitar), and Joesph "Mighty Joe" Mytes III on bass guitar, organ and all that good stuff.

The ten track set is available for digital download via their Bandcamp page, with an alternative to stream the complete project before purchase below. If you wan't a quick check to see what's in store, I recommend peeping the single "When The Music Stop" featuring Substantial; That's definitely my ish!
