Review by Oleg Goncharenko

Alright, buckle up. This ain’t your grandma’s album review. We’re diving into Lõuna Rakvere Underground Vol1 by James Wolfgang Rassakas—a wild ride through genres and vibes that’ll leave you scratching your head or nodding like a maniac. Released in 2018 under Lejal Genes (Estonia repping hard), this thing is a chaotic blend of House, Deep House, Hip-Hop, Spoken Word nonsense, and some jazzy hip-hop sprinkles for good measure. It shouldn’t work, but somehow it kinda does. First off, let’s talk about “Nagu Öö Ja Päev”—a track so smooth it feels like slipping on ice but loving the fall. The beat hits with that deep house warmth, layered with these moody atmospheric synths that just wrap around you like an old coat you forgot you loved. Then outta nowhere comes this spoken word bit that sounds like someone philosophizing at 3 AM after too many drinks. You don’t even understand half the words if you don’t speak Estonian, but damn if it doesn’t hit different. It’s hypnotic as hell, man. Like staring at a broken clock ticking backwards. Then there’s “Rihanna Nibud”, which…okay, hold up. What the actual fuck? This one slaps harder than it has any right to. Starts with what sounds like Rihanna samples chopped up and thrown into a blender set to "aggressive." But instead of being messy, it’s fire. The bassline grooves harder than most EDM drops I’ve heard this year, and the hi-hats? Sharp enough to cut glass. This track sticks because it doesn’t take itself seriously—it’s ridiculous, chaotic, and yet insanely catchy. If Rihanna ever heard this, she’d either sue or sign him immediately. The rest of the tracks are all over the place, ranging from introspective (“Äkki Ahti”) to straight-up bizarre (“Võib-Olla James”). Some feel like unfinished sketches; others punch way above their weight. Tracks like “Hello Kevad” bring that springtime vibe mixed with hip-house energy, while “Must Koer Ja Kuidas Sellega Toime Tulla” leans heavy on storytelling, though whether it’s profound or pretentious depends on how much vodka you’ve had. Here’s the kicker: this album isn’t perfect. Hell, it’s not even cohesive. But that’s why it works. It’s raw, unfiltered, and dripping with personality. Listening to it feels like eavesdropping on a late-night conversation between drunks who think they’re intellectuals. And honestly? That’s refreshing in today’s polished-to-death music scene. So yeah, give Lõuna Rakvere Underground Vol1 a spin if you’re tired of the same old shit. Just don’t expect answers—this album raises more questions than it solves. Like…what exactly is a “raisku läinud sõõrik,” anyway? Final thought: If this album were a person, it’d be that dude at the party who talks too loud, spills his drink, and somehow still leaves everyone talking about him afterward. Love it or hate it, you won’t forget it.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a fun fact: In 2018, an Estonian artist named James Wolfgang Rassakas released a super eclectic album called *Lõuna Rakvere Underground Vol1*. It’s wild how the album blends so many styles—think Deep House, Hip Hop, and even Spoken Word. One of the tracks is titled *Seksuaalse Ambivalentsuse Kehastus Weimari Vabariigi Aegses Paaristantsus*, which roughly translates to "The Embodiment of Sexual Ambivalence in a Weimar Republic Couple's Dance." How’s that for intriguing? The album even sneaks in a track referencing Rihanna and another nodding to former Estonian Prime Minister Mart Laar. Definitely not your average music release!
