La tesi sono i novanta, l'hip hop e la dub; l'antitesi sono gli zerodieci, la future garage e la post-dubstep; la sintesi è Fuss & Chips, il primo LP di Sabir. In mezz'ora, l'album si rivela un crogiolo di generi e culture, fra intermezzi jazz à la Flying Lotus, ostinati di stampo mitteleuropeo, suggestioni giamaicane e atmosfere indiane. Le diverse collaborazioni (Arsenal Arsenio, Elektro Flux, Sennid, Depatrie, Deeq and Rawz) rendono ancor più ricco ed eterogeneo questo eclettico esordio dell'artista milanese per White Forest Records.
ENGLISH
Fuss & Chips is a melting pot of styles and genres: hip hop & dub, future garage & post-dubstep, rap vocals. The producer from Milan, Sabir, mixes everything and the result is staggering, moving between jazz excerpts and European influences (both Kratwerk and Daft Punk), Jamaican atmospheres and Indian feelings. It all merges in a deep suburban flow which speaks the universal language of contemporaneity.
