Chemistry Class
As the former DJ for Jurassic 5 and Ozomatli, Cut Chemist long ago proved himself as a superb track-crafter. But whereas most turntablists hang close with the standard boom-bap, his recent solo venture was about as brilliantly well-rounded a release as one could hope for. Released this past Spring, The Audience's Listening ran an array of moods and musical flavors; and Chemist managed to keep the whole thing funky, clever, and very accessible throughtout. He plays The Abbey this Saturday, where he'll be sharing the stage with MC Lyrics Born. Also on the bill is Bostonian dee-jay and emcee Edan, whose psychedelia-soaked Beauty and the Beat LP was easily the wildest and most solid indie hip-hop pitches of 2005. Tickets are $20, the show starts at 10.
