24 Hr Sports (CD)
El Michels Affair
Amoeba Review
Lush and evocative, El Michels Affair's new one feels like endless summer. Named 24 Hr Sports in a nod to '80s/'90s fashion, graphic design and Sports Illustrated magazines, the album's influences also include MF DOOM’s Special Herbs and the samples used therein, and the dazzling '70s era gospel music of Chicago South Side pastor T.L. Barrett and his famous congregants (Donny Hathaway, Phil Cohran, Maurice White and Philip Bailey of Earth, Wind and Fire). Featuring special appearances from Clairo, Norah Jones, Shintaro Sakamoto, Florence Adooni, Rogê, Dave Guy, and a sample from Rahsaan Roland Kirk, this album is a pure pleasure. 24 Hr Sports is sleek, swingin', and spectacular.
