The Barbados-born Tar Baby is not so much a producer as a one-man pop
culture distillery. Taking the time-honored Mackie mixing board method
from his Caribbean forefathers, he filters sounds from turntables,
keyboards, computers, transistor radios, samplers, movies and God
knows what else down into a sweet, soulful post-modern hip hop elixir.
It's funky, and it's from Canada.
