Nobody

This is not the sequel to Nobody's last album Pacific Drift: Western WaterMusic Vol. 1 (2003, Ubiquity Records) although it is his brand new follow-upfull length. It is also his debut on LA based Plug Research, where Nobody (aka Elvin Estela) feels a bit more at home, both stylistically and literally among moreforward thinking music and fellow dublab.com cohorts.

This album finds him in transition and in regression, building on psychedelic themes apparent in his last album, yet revisiting his hip-hop roots as heard on his debut Soulmates (2000, Ubiquity Records). Nobody once again teams up with Mystic Chords of Memory (Chris Gunst of Beachwood Sparks and JenCohen of the Aisler's Set) and Farmer Dave Scher (Beachwood Sparks) who delivered the standout track on Pacific Drift, a beat heavy cover of the Monkees' "Porpoise Song." This time, they jump 30 years to cover one of Nobody's favorite 90's anthems, The Flaming Lips' "What is the Light"?
