{"product_id":"armand-hammer-alchemist-haram","title":"Armand Hammer \u0026 Alchemist - Haram","description":"\u003cdiv id=\"aec-product-description\" class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"aec-desc-review collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\nthe trees. At the time, much of the attention fell on how this outsider duo would fare\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eunder the bright lights- which was fair, Armand Hammer had never done a single\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eproducer record before- and here they were working with a living legend. Now,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewith a little distance, it's easier to see how Alchemist stepped out of his comfort\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ezone to meet them where they were, and how all three artists then absconded for\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eparts unknown. The flashbulb energy of \"Bring The Stars Out\", asymmetric drone\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eof \"Chicharrones\", fugue-bounce of \"God's Feet\", and good luck finding analogues\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efor \"Peppertree\" or \"Stonefruit\". Haram doesn't sound like anything else in the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eALC discography, nor in Armand Hammer's, for that matter. Haram was a one-\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eshot kill that somehow contained some of the most accessible work ELUCID and\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ebilly woods had ever done, as well as some of their most experimental, and it all\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esounded cohesive.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNeedless to say, they didn't do this alone; KAYANA's golden voice upps the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewattage on \"Black Sunlight,\" while Fielded's sultry alto gets chopped and screwed\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eon \"Aubergine\". Earl Sweatshirt's cameo on the sun-soaked \"Falling Out the Sky\"\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis already a classic. Curly Castro, Amani, and Quelle Chris all turn up the heat when\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ecalled upon.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBut since we are talking about retrospect here, the thing about Haram isn't that it\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003estill sounds as good as it did when it came out. The amazing thing is that it actually\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esounds even better than it did then. You don't have to take our word for it either, run\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eit up one time, with the lights low and something on ice, see if it doesn't take you\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esomewhere new, again.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Spinster Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46015896617043,"sku":"850063560320","price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/6399\/files\/4456040-3448682.jpg?v=1787529667","url":"https:\/\/www.spinsterrecords.com\/products\/armand-hammer-alchemist-haram","provider":"Spinster Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
