Gurov doesmore with stripped down minimal beats. Call it hip-hop, down tempo, left field or your favorite catch phrase. It is intentionally bare with wide spaces between the beats which some people would define as abstract. It is just as deep as USSR Rep but uses a different vocabulary. Probably where the title _New Rap Language_ comes from- just guessing. Equally useful as a DJ tool by the creative types but also useful as a listening device. > > > Also in response to the original question searching for a Jazz Fudge > compilation: There is _Organized Sound_ which is ok, or even better is > _Sculptured and Broken Sound_ which was compiled by JF and features many > Jazz Fudge and Soup Disc artists.
