Onra: Chinoiseries 2LP
Ya'll might know Onra from his modern boogie funk style, but he's also murderous on the MPC when it comes to heavy hip-hop instrumentals! If you missed out on the first Chinoiseries releases, you must catch up and get with Chinoiseries Pt 2 , now on All City. The theme remains the same from the previous installment - beats crafted from records dug up in the far east - but the way Onra flips it is just so sick! Check "Remember The Name(1)," "A New Dynasty(2)," or "It's All Memories(3)" for starters, then get into the heavy head nod of "Words Of Encouragement(4)," "No Matter What(5)," "Where I'm From(6)," and "Still Broke(7)." Even got the shout out to the RZA on "One For The Wu(8)." So many beats to dig into here, 32 total over 2LPs! Recommended.
