Medicine Show No. 11: Low Budget High Fi Music

A sprawling 28-track collage of grit and soul. Tape-hiss heavy beats and fragmented raps that feel like a pirate radio broadcast from a basement in 1994.

A hazy, nostalgic journey through fragmented memories and dusty record grooves.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition into the 'Underwater Mix' of O.G. Part 2 where the high-end completely dissolves into a murky bass-heavy throb.
The way the soul vocal loop in 'Thoughts of an Old Flame' seems to fight against the crackling vinyl noise for dominance.
The surreal comedic timing of the 'Interview #4080' skit breaking the rhythmic hypnosis of the preceding tracks.
