Wow! What a great album. Look at the credits and that should give you a pretty good idea of where this album is gonna go. Oh and it goes!
...a cyberfunk creation by Bootsy Collins and Bill Laswell, driving funk into the virgin territories of ambient, hardcore, techno and beyond, with Praxis bandmates Buckethead and Bernie Worrell-a sonic landscape of the gradual apocalypse.

On A Friendly Game of Chess, Buddy has teamed up with Bewildered Beat Headz boss Zilla, to create 60 minutes of madness, from the openings portentuous spoken word intro, it propels you through a barrage of styles, everything and anything is thrown into the mixer and it all comes out smelling of roses. Ambient, Kraut rock, indie, hip hop all mixed together to produce a stunning musical soundscape, culminating in the rare pleasure of hearing Mobb Deep ride roughshod over The Pixies.
