MP3 At 3PM: Prefuse 73

Multi-monikered hip-hop artist Guillermo Scott Herren (a.k.a. Savath y Savalas, a.k.a. Diamond Watch Wrists), best known as Prefuse 73, will be releasing his latest effort, Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian, on April 14 on Warp. Ampexian arrives just in time to set up lawn chairs on your roof this summer, where Herren’s deft, palatable R&B beats—infused with jazz trumpets and hiccupping electronic blips—will create a perfect ambience over an epic 29 tracks. The song “Preperation's Kids Choir” is more hormonal than a 13-year-old girl, but its steady loops keep it planted firmly in your mind all day long.
