Scratch - Loss 4 Wordz
(CD/2xLP) Goldust Media/!K7, 2009-05-18
Loss For Wordz is Scratch's introduction to a new audience. Although his beatboxing is still the foundation, singers predominate, melodies are pushed out front by a supporting cast of traditional instruments and the vast array of beats and sound effects at the disposal of this man's extraordinary mouth offer guidance and decoration rather than an overwhelming barrage of verbal trickery. "I wanted the tracks to be as simple as possible, but also to sound full. That's why I brought these instruments in, to provide new colours but still keep the simplicity."
