 It's a very gritty record..... mostly sounds like a pisstake (as far as
 I can tell) but if you liked Richard D. James (which I did not) you'll
 probably like the mentality of the record. There's one cool track where
 richard plays with a sample of his mum laughing. Very creepy. And the
 guest mixes by cylob and vibert are kinda cool.

To my ears,
I would consider the richard d james album to be a very serious record with a
childhoold feel to it.  Ventolin, on the other hand, seems to be an album of
pure fun. It does not have a very serious feel to it at all.  Shake it for
your hood if its all good.
