In the world of instrumental hip-hop, Ayatollah needs no introduction. Since making his name producing tracks for hip-hop icons like Mos Def, Pharoahe Monch, Sean Price, Rakim, Ghostface Killah, and Talib Kweli, the New York beatsmith has turned his attention to vocal-less music. After eight acclaimed instrumental collections, Ayatollah announces his first vinyl offering in over five years, Fingertips. Musically, Fingetips reflects the gritty sound the producer has become known for. Horns blare, drums pound, basslines rumble, and vocal snippets drift in and out. As has been well-documented, Ayatollah still uses his trusty Akai MPC 60, meaning the music on the album did in fact come straight from the tips of some famously dusty fingers.
