AJA WEST

The Olympian

2007-03-05

What a bunch of funk-a-delic tunes! This album stands way out from the crowd. Aja West best known for his role as Composer/Producer in the group "The Mackrosoft," brings a weird mix of funk/hip-hop/jazz and some heavily mixed vocals. Besides being so different The Olympian is good in that it combines those genres without ruining the music. If you're looking for something new and different this is the album to open your senses to an unimaginable place. – MK
