Vancouver duo Potatohead People (Nick Wisdom and Astrological) have released their highly anticipated sophomore LP Nick & Astro’s Guide To The Galaxy<\/em>, and it sounds amazing! The album serves up 12 tracks with collaborations including J Dilla’s brother Illa J, K-Maxx, Nanna B, Kapok, Moka Only, and Trian Kayhatu. <\/p>\n

With a signature sound that can be described as a J Dilla-esque hip-hop \/ future electronic feel, the new album hear’s Potatohead delve in a myriad of genres including classic funk on Kayhatu collaboration track “Returning The Flavour,” ultra-smooth R&B on Nanna B’s “Morning Sun” and “Change Of Heart” featuring Illa J. \u201cLiftin\u2019 Up\u201d featuring San Francisco\u2019s K-Maxx ventures into West Coast boogie territories, while the album\u2019s closer, \u201cRituals,\u201d goes for a deeper more atmospheric electronic vibe. Seamlessly moving between downtempo rhythms, ambient sound, analog synth, organic instrumentation, and more, Potatohead People’s long awaited return on Nick & Astro’s Guide To The Galaxy<\/em> ushers in an exciting and forward thinking new chapter in the duo’s evolving discography.<\/p>\n

Some of our favorite tracks are Morning Sun feat. Nanna B, Quest For Love, Talking With Gawd, No Sleep Til MTL, and
\nLiftin’ Up feat. K-Maxx. <\/p>\n
