Teraban — Operation: Bloody Valentine (The Lost Weapons)

The General Dom Pachino Presents Teraban, "Operation: Bloody Valentine (The Lost Weapons Mixtape)", a collaborative project created together with his friend Bugsy da God. The tape consists of 22 tracks made mainly by two rappers under the name Teraban, with exceptions represented by solo tracks performed by Dom Pachino and Bugsy da God. The production is mainly created by Falling Down, which provides beats for half of the mixtape, as well as Lord Beatjitzu (7 beats), Fascist Beats, Bugsy da God and 140 Productions, the latter with one beat each. The guests are Chapelz aka Chapel of 140 Productions and of Dom Pachino's Team Napalm, which gets a solo track, Ninth Prince aka 9th Prince of Killarmy, Dezert Eagle aka Desert Eagle of Hillside Scramblers, Bugotti Bomb and Eliana. The whole set of rhythms developed by the producers may not thrill you and not completely convince you, even though it's one of the nicest productions you can hear on a Dom Pachino record and there's practically no wrong beat out of twenty-two. Killarmy rapper and Bugsy da God deliver well together and show discreet mic proficiency, the most satisfying results come in the finale, with the "NYC Housing" and "Teraban, Teraban" highlights. It's an interesting starting point for listening to Dom Pachino, not essential in going to the warm core of the best products related to Wu-Tang.
