Carlos NiÃ±o and Fabian Ammon have long been fulcrums of LA Black music, perfectly poised between the jazz crowd centered around Dwight Trible and classic group's like the Army of Healers and Build An Ark, the underground hip hop scene which grew from the Good Life and Project Blowed collectives and the heavy soul-beat sound of the likes of Sa Ra and Madlib. 'With Voices' is the album that Ammoncontact have been waiting to make - the point where the duo's own loping, deep production style could be melded, as the title has it, with the voices around them. The results are scinitillating, a hip hop album bursting with spirituality and positivity and a unique ambience. The guests include the legendary Yusef Lateef, Kamau Daaood (a writer and performer who turned down the opportunity to join the Last Poets in the late sixties), Dwight Trible, Lil Sci (Scienz of Life and MF Doom cohort), Abstract Rude (Project Blowed/Big Dada), Sach (The Nonce), Prince Po (one half of the mighty Organised Konfusion) and the Dark Sun Rider himself, Brother J (leader of X Clan). Nothing is forced here, nothing out of place. The guests all add to a feeling of unification which is rare on 'producer' albums. This is Ammoncontact's masterpiece, a record which at heart grows from their love of music and love of a city and is all about just that - heart. And a little bit of soul?'
