Here's a CD by Walter Pico. He's a new chap to the towers... I like his name. It's nice. The opener of 'My Alter Ego' is a 60's spy fueled hip-hop scratch-a-thon instrumental job which nicely leads you into the varying styles of hip-hop on the album which our walter has apparently grown up with. It's an 11 track EP which varies in quality but throughout the whole thing you get a feeling of cheekyiness. It's all done light heartedly but with a passion for hip-hop and that's to be commended. The instrumental tracks are somewhere in between Sixtoo and Lemon Jelly with nods to cinematic hip-hop yet there's the lightness of Lemon Jelly chucked in via the samples. Slicing.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

his first official release. featuring both vocal and instrumental tracks, this concept ep blends - and pays homage to - the many hip hop styles that walter has grown up with but sadly seem to be dissolving. with some 'back-to-basics' downright filthy and aggressive tracks to 'chillout' beats that one should kick back to and enjoy with gran and a rich tea biscuit. this cd throws them together until they trickle out of the blender all tasty and delicious.
