Review

Listening to the first track of Beans's Shock City Maverick, "Light of the Damned," is like entering a vast city, an erotic, techno-fuelled city. Self-described as "the Ornette Coleman of this rap shit," Beans is the former MC/producer of the innovative and underappreciated '90s hip-hop group Anti-Pop Consortium. Shock City Maverick, his third and best solo project, finally--and so effortlessly--arrives at the icy techno state his previous projects struggled to reach. So thoroughly electric and synthetic are the tracks that when you hear the droning cello on the instrumental "A Force on Edge," it seems to be a 1000-year-old relic recovered by a team of urban archeologists. There are no trees in Beans's future city, and the sky is the color of a television tuned to a dead channel. --Charles Mudede
