Carboot Soul (1999)

EW's GRADE
B+

Details Lead Performance: Nightmares On Wax

George Evelyn is the Barry White of electronic music — a producer/conceptualist who stacks live instruments onto found sound to produce a rich ambient-funk mix. On his third album Carboot Soul, he's created a tasty seven-layer soul cake. Tracks like ''Arghanoah'' and ''Fire in the Middle'' kick up tranquil grooves that will seep into your bloodstream like a mild narcotic. B+
