A Quick Moneymaker.......2001-10-25

Tommy Guerrero is a good musician, of that I have no doubt. His minimalist lounge affair "A Little Bit of Somethin'" done on his home 4-track as I understand was blissful and original. It was basically him and his guitar with a dimensional layering and the intricate melodies were hypnotizing. Don't mistake his other work with this. This is some trip-hop attempt at Acid Lounge. It is not creative or conceptual but very repetitive. It is dark and cold, but not in a good way. It is dark and cold like mold in the basement. The weakness of the breakbeats becomes quickly apparent as you scroll through the CD wishing you could jam to something but not quite finding it. This sounds like something my little brother made with his Acid computer program.

Amazing Instrumental and Vocal Combination Makes Head Spin.......2001-04-02

After hearing Tommy Guererro's first album, I didn't think that there could be another like it. I was wrong! The follow up to his debut is incredible. The skateboarder turned songwriter absolutely kills it in this mixture of jazz and guitars. The lyrics to "Mechanisms" are mezmorizing. This is the kind of album that you can put on at a party and have people just chill out and relax to. You will also be getting many questions as to where they can pick up the album.

Beats that don't blunt.......2001-04-01

Never the most original, Tommy Guerrero ploughs confidently through lots of blissed out Hip Hop beats. Or so you thought until you reach `Mechanisms' when he and his collaborator go Beloved. The delicious back beat has strings for company and like sun light breaking through your curtains at dawn, John Gold sings, "here comes the silence". `Jusdis Boy' is another sublime awakening of a track. However, `RF Interference' is the pinnacle. A loungy latin love affait that twirls you around the dancefloor of your mind. This album is more than a beats and blunts affair.
