Material Girl is a bit of an enigma in the music world. The Philadelphia based producer and artist has finally come out with his debut solo record and holy shit what a debut it is. If you have never listed to sound collage, then welcome. Sound collage in short is taking several sound bits and/or sonic soundscapes (original or sampled) and putting them together like a picture collage. So, many of the ideas might not sound that fluent, but the best artist in the genre always have a common ground they come back to. On material girl?s debut, he does this extremely perfectly. Track after track you will have a whimsical jazz rap style backing instrumental but he throws in some wild sound bites and scrapes that perk up your ears when you hear it. From what I can tell the influence of the record is from the hectic nature of life and how one minute you could be having a good day and one small thing can send you crashing down. My small negative is several of the tracks or sub-tracks sort of cut out right in the middle of it which leaves a sour taste in my mouth for the few seconds it happens. Otherwise, this is a nearly flawless album that everyone should check out if your wanting an adventure.
