The Greatest Music
Released: 1996
Dr. Octagonecologyst
by Dr. Octagon
The 1023rd greatest album of all time
Dr. Octagonecologyst is a 1996 album released under the Dr. Octagon persona. The record pairs Kool Keith's surreal, science fiction and horror-tinged lyrics delivered in a detached style with Dan the Automator's spare, cinematic, and sample-driven production and DJ Qbert's turntable work, blending underground hip hop with trip hop and electronic textures. Its unusual song structures, bizarre imagery, and atmospheric beats make it a notable example of experimental 1990s hip hop.
