Fueled on pizza and the spirit of dance music, Chef Sam O.B. has lovingly cooked up four courses for our aural connoisseurs to enjoy: “Just A Slice.”

Like any good pizza, it all starts with the dough, and “Making Dough” gets us right on track. Borrowing elements from house classics of the past, it rises on a jackin’ groove complete with a funky fermented low-end and dashes of vocals from the chef himself. 

“Le Sauce” offers a tangy burst of flavor atop our dough foundation; a sort of subtle and seductive palate that only the most refined of sauces can provide. Twists and turns await as the layers of seasoned live instrumentation unveil themselves (best enjoyed past dusk).

Next, as you might have expected, is “Cheezin’” - many people’s favorite part of a pie. This one is sharp; bursting with mouthwatering umami energy and, like any good chef, O.B. has added just enough to leave you wanting more of the catchy interwoven melodies and rhythms sprinkled within.

Finally, it’s time to grab a piping hot “Just A Slice” out of the oven - an amalgamation of all groovin’ ingredients added thus far and the title track. A bubbling and elastic bassline pairs with the percussion of various textures and savory synth lines, combining for a well-balanced meal sure to keep your senses engaged. 

A satisfying listen, “Just A Slice” would do, but feel free to indulge in multiple spins.
