Declaime – In The Beginning (Vol. 2) (LP)
Product information "Declaime – In The Beginning (Vol. 2) (LP) "
In the Beginning (Vol. 2) continues the treasure trove of the early
works of Declaime & Madlib, the longtime collaborators who helped
usher in a new sound and style from the city of Oxnard, Calif. This
collection is brimming with previously unheard tracks from this
beyond-creative duo that blends hip-hop with funk, jazz, soul, and
psychedelia to lay the groundwork for so many other emcees and
producers.
For Declaime (a/k/a Dudley Perkins), this series serves as a way to honor his friends and the city that raised them. He shouts out names like The Almighty Metaphor (aka MED), Oh No the Disrupt, DJ Romes, Kazi, and more, who he says “created a lane for the city of Oxnard to get the recognition it deserves.” Some of them make an appearance in one form or another on this collection, too—Romes, for example, mastered the project—that compiles 10 previously lost tracks that were recorded from 1993 to ‘96.
In The Beginning (Vol. 2) is entirely produced by Madlib, who provided all the cuts as well. His instrumentals are on that raw and dusty vibe as they move freely through genres and sounds, like on standout cuts “Bandwagon,”WLIX,” and “Signs (feat. Wildchild).” Those are all highlights for Declaime, too, and they demonstrate his ability to blend his observations of the world with bravado and third-eye insights. Even as young kids just getting their feet wet in the studio, these two were firmly on their path.
