Saga – From Out Of The Shadows [Free LP]

Comprised of ten tracks, produced entirely by Toronto expat Marco Polo, the promising Brooklyn upstart, Saga, at long last steps from out of the shadows to tell his story for his debut effort. “From Out of the Shadows” is now available for stream and free download, courtesy of AudioMack.

Packed with dusty piano riffs and buttery soul samples, Roga Raph’s debut release, “Visionary Shift” gives off that old school feeling without coming across as either formulaic, or dated. The free release allows the Mt. Kisco emcee/producer to tell his story, without taking this tale too seriously. The album’s strengths is its sonic diversity. Whether it’s the chilled out, “Signz”, the debut, “Fck Whut They Say”, or the uptempo “In The Now” with its prominent Eckhart Tolle samples, Raph proves that he can ride with the best of them.
