he jumping from one style to another on Jahcoozi's debut album is inevitable, as most of the material was recorded over a three-year span of time and reflects the shifts in IDM and popular electronic music over that span. But Jahcoozi bring to the table an impressive arsenal that shows them to be a versatile trio that can play virtually any style of music. Beginning with the gritty, Dabrye-inspired IDM/hip-hop of the album's opener, "Black Barbie," and working their way through grime, glitch, IDM, and more tracks that sound like they could have been produced by Dabrye, Jahcoozi make this notion more than apparent. Jahcoozi's pop sensibility is what makes them a solid group that could give the most elite of indie electronic producers out there a run for their money, especially with lead singer Sasha Perera's beautiful melodies and double-tracked harmonies. ~ Rob Theakston|

ドイツのキティ・ヨーから注目のオモシロ3人組がデビュー・アルバムをリリースしました。エレクトロ・ブレイクビーツ+ダンスホールなトラックに、ロンドン出身の女性MC=サシャの弾けた歌やラップが乗っかるという作りの楽曲で、M.I.A.やディプロ周辺のサウンドがお気に入りの人には聴き逃し厳禁な内容となっております。すでにジェイミー・リデルやビッグ・ダダ・クルーとも共演済みなんだとか。
