Thriftworks - Deviation

Review by DJ Prestige

Thriftworks’ latest album, Deviation, is a sonic journey that takes listeners on a wild ride through a variety of genres and moods. From the dreamy and ethereal opening track, “Aphex Twin,” to the glitchy and frenetic “Pulse Code,” the album showcases the Oakland-based producer’s unique blend of hip-hop, electronic, and experimental music.

The tracks on Deviation are characterized by intricate beats, haunting melodies, and a sense of otherworldliness that is both captivating and disorienting. “Terry’s Big Dab” features a hypnotic beat that gradually builds in intensity, while “Pillow in the Woods” is a dreamy, atmospheric track that feels like a journey through a mystical forest.

Despite the diverse range of sounds and styles on the album, there is a cohesive quality to Deviation that ties everything together. The tracks flow seamlessly from one to the next, creating a sense of continuity and cohesiveness that is rare in modern music.

Summary by DJ Prestige

Deviation is a standout album that showcases Thriftworks’ unique sound and creative vision. With its blend of hip-hop, electronic, and experimental elements, it is a must-listen for fans of innovative and boundary-pushing music.
