XLR8R

Bavarian-born Andreas Angerer (a.k.a. Zero Crossing) has an aptly named debut album, as the tracks are more his interpretation of what funk is than an accurate representation of it. We couldn't be happier about this, because instead of a predictable 15 tracks we get numbers that shift between two-step, grime, electro, disco, and even have time for a few guest appearances by the likes of Kool Keith and Jaymz Nylon, making for one of the most musically colorful debuts to surface in a while.
