MH-205 Fat Jon The Ample Soul Physician - Wave Motion  Wave Motion, the first full-length instrumental release from Fat Jon The Ample Soul Physician of The Five Deez, explores the deeper side of instrumental hip-hop. Using mature production and seductive jazz samples, Jon has created a truly notable record. Taking equal inspiration from 60's Kind Of Blue jazz and 70's Innervisions soul, Jon has crafted a release that chooses understated melodies and chord changes over cheap thrill loops and scratches. It is the work of someone who has spent years in the studio; it is the work of someone who has created thousands of tracks. Wave Motion is Fat Jon's finest work to date and a solid addition to the Mush catalog. |

| With the title of Ample Soul Physician, Cincinnati native Fat Jon provides the cure for those tired of conventional hip-hop/turntablism on his full-length debut. Composed of select tracks from his two previous EPs, Dyslexic and Stasis, Wave Motion proves that hip-hop is about more than the MC. The producer, who also serves as rapper/producer for indie act Five Deez, is able to convey various emotions through the set's sample-hued, instrumental tracks. "1975" has a cinematic feel, thanks in part to some old James Brown sound bites. Conversely, the laid-back nature of "Where?" is accented by the various jazz samples Jon employs. - Billboard |
