Day 323: The 5th Exotic

The 5th Exotic by Quantic

The 5th Exotic leaves no stone unturned psycho-acoustically, not to mention musically. With dub, jazz, funk, flamenco and blues all explored through the lens of early-noughties trip-hop and garagey beats, it really is an exploration of what can be done when you combine samples of acoustic music, electronic beats and fresh recordings, many of which Will Holland played himself on a variety of instruments. I urge you to hear the 5th Exotic on good headphones or a big soundsystem and discover the parts of your mind you didn’t know existed.
