Max & Astro Graef - The Yard Work Simulator [Vinyl]

Max and Glenn are music lovers first and foremost playing it, making it, digging for it, talking about it music is their lifeblood. Its this commitment to the art and culture of DJing that has earned them props from Resident Advisor, Boiler Room and the worldwide underground at large. Taking in chunky but totally misshapen four-to-the-floor bangers Where The Fuck Are My Hard Boiled Eggs?!, Jumbo Fr¯snapper and previous single Magic Johnson alongside the shuffling 7 minute breakbeat epic title track and digi-funk nuggets Money $ex Theme and Flat Peter, the result is a 10- track trip through the pairs deliciously warped psyche, channelled through a ton of hardware. A direct extension of the albums irreverent sonic palette, the artwork is by friend and illustrator Rahel S¸flkind. Sonically and ideologically off to the left of the pristine, highlypolished dance music underground, Max and Glenn have built their reputation on short-run vinyl-only 12s, real grass roots independent record store excitement/support, turning dancefloors on their head week in week out, and pure word of mouth. It has been solely about the music from the beginning and with The Yard Work Simulator the duo are set to spread their message even further.
