X-Ray Ted’s Debut Album – an amazing vibe

Listening to Moving On is an immersive experience. This is not the regular background music. It’s the kind of album that hooks you from the opening guitar riff of his first track I Been Good. Then, the groove keeps you moving until the final beat of ‘Talkin’ ends the album. It reminded me of my late-night DJ sessions back in the early ’90s, where the music was all about creating an unforgettable vibe. X-Ray Ted added some Funk, Soul, Hip Hop, Beats, and Breaks into a cohesive collection, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. UK MCs Dr Syntax and Professor Elemental also dropped their talents into the mix, further enriching the album’s dynamic with their lyrical prowess.
