Foscil & Specs One - Discuss The Benefits Of Said Collaboration EP

Back with this EP that's already 10 years old although I discovered it recently.
It's a 100% northwest collaboration, all artists being from Seattle: on one hand Specs One, the MC, on the other hand a live band called Foscil. Bands playing instrumental hip hop is not usually my cup of tea, but I must say their sound is pretty slick, and they avoid the usual traps of such bands' music.
For example "Crunch Day" is based on a nice sample flipped a la J-Zone.
Give it a try, it's a pleasant surprise and the vinyl is pretty easy to get your hands on at a cheap price.
