MH-217 Listener - Whispermoon  Whispermoon, the debut solo album from Listener, is a fourteen song collection of undeniably underground hip-hop. Combining rhymes that bounce between spiritual observation and old-school wordplay with backing tracks based on melodic samples and grit-drum counter rhythms, Listener displays an ear for dark uses of sound and the ability to rely on traditional flow to remain memorable and accessible. Guest MCs include Manchild of Mars Ill and Listener's Deepspace5 and Labklik crew members. Acclaimed Mars Ill producer Dust is the force behind the bulk of the music with additional production handled by Gruntwork, Fred Bruno, Ill, and Listener himself. Whispermoon is a notable debut and a sign of great things to come. |

| The punchy production of Dust proves an ideal template for this MC's Mush debut. On "Whispermoon," Listener whispers not one single time. Instead, he serves up word-stuffed critiques with a comfort and confidence that suggest he'd been carrying the show for years. - Download |
