I've enjoyed the soulful, inventive productions of Oddisee since around 2006 after discovering his diverse discography with a variety of breakthrough artists such as Little Brother and his group Diamond District. Oddisee is one producer who has made my search for music in the new digital age something to look forward to, by leaving his creative imprint of inventive sample-based production on different styles of Hip Hop, Soul and Instrumental music. This collection called "A Year In" showcases Oddisee's growth as a producer/MC who continues to collaborate with a range of up and coming talent, from traditional Hip Hop, Southern bounce or contemporary Soul.








Review from the LA Times Music Blog"
"Oddisee spent 2010 trying to live up to his name, collaborating with a range of characters, including Brighton, England's trip-hop soulstress Andreya Triana, jazzy New York favorite Homeboy Sandman and the top tier -- X.O., Kingpin Slim, yU -- of his Washington, D.C., hometown. His soulful wanderings lamped in Los Angleles long enough to produce ideal complements to the laid-back palm-tree flows of TiRon, Blu and Trek Life. Available for free at his Bandcamp site, the compilation traces the arc of one of the most gifted and unsung producers in rap."
