Editorial Reviews
Album Description
"An artful hip-hop record that comes off as totally sincere." -- XLR8R
With his third full-length, Bizzart's patented sound-collage-hip-hop takes on a more focused form. Ever since 2003's Ear Drung, Bizzart's method has been drastically free, reveling in the process of throwing sounds against the wall to see what sticks--and, more importantly, to see what interesting patterns might emerge. With Future Stars and Small Wonders, Bizzart seems to have built upon this Jackson Pollack approach, channeling it into something all together new. Bizzart teamed up with producer Innaspace to create his most subtle, introspective, accessible, and rewarding record to date. Without sacrificing extra-planetary experimentation or Bizzart's unwavering vision, the duo has compiled a batch of songs with more focus and personal content than has been seen yet.
Customer Reviews
Bringing it like you knew he would.
To put it simply: This album is amazing. Bizzart shoves an even bigger dose of his unparalleled and undefiable musical remedy for those seeking a legit and raw expression of the artist's musical motivation. This record is 100% goodness with no filler. A must have.
The future/past/present of hip-hop
I apologize to Bizzart for the following comparisons, but, the more I listen, the more I can't ignore the parallels between Kanye West's and his music. Both artists are 1) best (begrudgingly) labeled hip-hop though try to offer slices of newness to the genre 2) rap/sing with in a stream-of-consciousness fashion 3) wear their hearts on their sleeves. However, the big difference is that Kanye's oddities only seem new to the casual music fan and his "heartbreaks" are eclipsed by an overwhelming ego. Arthur Arellanes III (aka Bizzart), on the other hand, grabs a suitcase full of sweated-upon samplers, a rusting microphone, puts his shirt over his head and blasts out buzzing beats, bashed-up guitar samples, contextual field recordings and a chest-punch vocal delivery. Working a cycle of dynamics - from tear-jerking piano medleys ("My Sister's In Jail") to anger-fueled Grime ("Hookers and Bling") - Arelleanes might not rule the roost, but he deserves the inheritance.
