Get Someday Right Now!

"This is Beans's second solo release following the excellent Tomorrow Right Now from 2003. If you enjoyed Beans unique approach to rap music on Tomorrow Right Now then NOW SOON SOMEDAY will not dissapoint.

SOMEDAY is split between 3 remixes of tracks from Tomorrow Right Now and 6 brand new compositions. The new tracks don't dramatically advance the sonic template established with Tomorrow, but as anyone knows from Beans's days in Anti-Pop Consortium, you can never predict the kind of unusual lyrical twists and odd computerized noises this guy will throw at you. The opening track, "Structure Tone", is a perfect example. On this tune Beans lets the music float amorphously into the air with woozy tempo changes and squiggly synths before brining it back down to earth. The music of "Databraker" is similary not of this world, with its slow-motion, druggy sci-fi bleeps. More beat-heavy are "Composition In Void" and, in my opinion, SOMEDAY's best track "Win or Lose You Lose", which has a chorus that I found near impossible to get out of my head.

The remix tracks, while good, keeps the record from being a unified whole. El-P and Prefuse 73 each take a turn at "Mutescreamer" and succeeds at giving the song a boost in added weirdness and complexity.

All of this music might just be a teaser for the new full-length Beans has already plans for in the works, but its not to be overlooked by anyone seeking adventerous hip-hop."

"Beans is having a renaissance. His recent tour with The Unicorns has forced many people to check him out. Not just the people that are into weird indie hiphop either. This is the second disk in a year from Beans. He was in Anti Pop Consortium for a while. This record is more of a remix record with El-P and Prefuse 73. Some tracks return from the previous thing, Tomorrow Right Now. Much of the music sounds like Throbbing Gristle or Suicide, with Beans rapping over it. It's probably closer in spirit to Schooly D and Kool Keith. It grows on you. It is getting better every day. Beans will be in your town soon enough."
