Upstate New York hip-hop act Pseudo Slang matches the pensive, smooth verses of Emcee Sick with the beats of Tone Atlas, and neither producer nor MC has to raise his voice too much to keep up a solid presence. Pseudo Slang cites jazz pianist Bill Evans as an influence, which makes sense, considering how Tone Atlas mixes meaty scratching and breakbeats with cool keyboard flavors and vibraphone on "Bedouin," from the 2009 album We'll Keep Looking.
