OCR: keyboard arrangements over slow hip hop grooves. with plenty of lo-fi pops and hisses spliced in between. It is Quite atmospheric, in a spooky way. The group is heavily influenced by the '60s soundtrack themes of John Barry (the James Bond theme); Jerry Goldsmith (~Planet of the Apes"; "Chinatown"); and Ennio Morricone (~The Good, the Bad and the ugly").
