Aloha rarely disappoints, if you've been a fan of Todd Smith's work for ever so long. Under his moniker El-Creepo!, he showcases musical influences pooled from mostly acoustic, Hawaiian, and big band-esque sounds and naturally finds a way to tie them together. Sometimes the lyrics to these tracks are far too consistent for their own good and the audio quality isn't always up to speed, but Todd's vocals and a knack for the occasional non-pigeonholed songwriting are honestly what drive this record home.
