Swarvy

Markus is a mild-mannered Philly kid who made his way to the glistening tinsel of Los Angeles. There, when wackness strikes, the spectacled young man turns on a beat machine, tightens his tom-toms and tunes his bass to turn into Swarvy, beat superhero.  Stunts is Swarvy's follow up collection after last year's sublime Scotch. Stunts is damn near a codex. Four volumes of beats blending live and programmed sounds makes for a fun-filled journey. "Hair" is one of my favorites. It reminds me of Dilla, it makes me want to drive for no reason and most importantly it feels so good.
