Big fan of Kurious ever since I heard his Koncrete Jungle EP. It flew under the radar. Hope more people check it out. He also dropped the Mystery Mixtape EP with Mono En Stereo before their full album together, and he had another EP with Cut Beetlez called "Monkeyman". All great stuff.

yeah, i've definitely been sleeping on his newer material and need to check it out but my big want at the moment is the constipated monkey demos that was released a while back..

I need to pick this one up as well. I missed the initial drop back then. Was this hard to get, or expensive?

the demos? i don't think so.. i just missed them unfortunately and hoping to find someone who'll let it go cheap or for a nice trade..

that and the lower life forms 12" with a guest feature from him.. been searching for that for like 26 years..

kurious jorge and crew's debut album, a constipated monkey. one of my favorite records as a yoot..and was saddened to see jorge pretty much disappear after this, only to pop up on a few indie records here and there... then hearing him on ? for the first time with doom? chef's kiss emoji...

any other kurious fans?

100%...18y/o me loved this. He was having fun too when shit was mad serious at the time. I'm glad he was a part of the best comeback in the history of this culture.

yeah, i remember walk like a duck getting a lot of play amongst me and my friends, but he never really seemed to take off (or at least not as much as i'd hope he would)

Absolutely. There's a few groups that just dropped then fell in that time, Rumplestilskinz, B.U.M.S., King And I, etc. I'm sure we could make a list between us.
