Given that it's been eleven years since Wajeed last released an album - the hip-hop focused "The War LP" - you'd expect the Detroiter's latest full-length to be a totally different beast. It is, of course, with "From The Dirt" containing more material influenced by his recent dalliances with Motor City deep house. Over the course of ten tasty tracks, the former Platinum Pied Pipers producer happily flits between acid-fired piano house ("From The Dirt"), Omar-S style goodness ("After You Left"), disco and funk-influenced vocal workouts (see "Things About You"), tasty tech-soul songs ("I Ain't Safe", the wonderful "Make It Happen") and jazz-flecked deep house dustiness (the percussive and swinging, "My Father's Rhythm").
